Are you trying to tell us that there are a lot of neurodivergent people on lemmy?

It’s because there are people who actually hold this opinion.

A lot fucking less than the internet would have you believe. Take a second and examine all your evidence for believing “there are people who actually hold this opinion”. Does it all come from the internet? Almost entirely from no-context screenshots or clips that seem suspiciously scripted? Do you think maybe those aren’t the best sources?
That’s the problem every time these fake as shit posts are created. There are always folks in the comments that rush to defend it by going “well it might be fake THIS time, but it sounds like something that COULD happen, so I’m gonna still file it away as evidence that it does.”
Like, I’m sure SOME people exist like that. There are 8.3 billion people in this world, that’s enough that you can always find a handful that believe anything. There is a non-zero number of people that enjoy eating literal shit, but that doesn’t mean they are everywhere.
And before you say it (because this is always the reply), if your evidence for their existence is the results of elections, that is faulty logic. There is an ocean of separation between people who are simply idiots, and those that actually hold opinions like “Libraries are a waste cuz they’re full of books. Why book when internet?”
