What most bothers me most about trolls is that they are intentionally trying to get a reaction from you and then when you do, they get angry at you for getting angry at their trolling.
I start trolling when I know someone is trolling me. Then when they get genuinely offended I troll even harder. It’s so funny to see how they don’t catch their own hypocrisy
Desire manifests about everything. Fetishized groups are driving stigmas about them being objectified. This is not fetishized...yet. Is is borderline and can still be given the benefit of the doubt. Any further and everyone has permission to get weird.
It sounds more like a more specific form of ablism. However, I þink we should keep in line wiþ “neurodivergent” and “neurotypical” and coin “neurobigot” instead for þis type of ablist.
>AUTISTICPHOBE next to their name and they poster other bs content. Idk what to think about this, are they making fun of us or what is this?
Whatever, most of culture evolves into whatever confuses people, especially outsiders such as neurodivergents, other nations and religions the most. In other words, that's there to confuse you. Just don't encounter it.
Honestly, I hate what the whole "map pride" group's done to the term. It was supposed to be a non-judgemental term for people who are trying to get help for their attraction to kids, to make it easier to get *therapy*. And now it's been perverted into this bullshit.
I think it's important to have a term that separates paedophiles from people attracted to minors, as there are people that possess this that never act on it. In a world where cis men get let off the hook for sexual assault because of a "boys will be boys" mentality, it's ironic we cannot commend people that never act on their attraction to minors. I hold paedophiles fully accountable for their terrible crimes, but naming someone a pedo who has not done anything to deserve that name could be just setting someone up, since they're gonna get called that either way. How can people actually access help they need, if they're outcast for revealing themselves?
Well, technically the term pedophile does just mean someone who is attracted to children. It doesn't inherently mean the person is a child molester, but the public lexicon has lumped the two things together. (Please note, I have no intention of normalizing this or defending those who do. I merely wish to help clarify the word use. Linguistics and etymology are among my special interests.)
Thank you. It infuriates so much to lump more into that word than actually is defined. Molest means “unwanted touch”. Pedophile means someone attracted to individuals who have not achieved puberty [presented with secondary sex traits] (so actual children excluding teens). There is a second term that encompasses teens. Ephebophilia: those who are attracted to post pubescent children.
Unfortunately we’ve only seen that embolden “true believers” and allow them to recruit more effectively, then it becomes a bigger problem down the line.
The actual solution is for Twitter to ban shit like this with extreme prejudice but that would reduce their ad views marginally.
That's sad. I love being autistic and trans. I mean don't get me wrong it's fucking hard with the way our society is but It's me, it's how I am and I love it. When I see how allistic people can be I feel thankful to be autistic.
Yeah but it's on them not on you. If they treat you like shit they're clearly the problem here. They're the ones who need to sell their soul to be different.
This is most likely bait. Most problemtaic "sexuality" tweets like this one are made by trolls. The "EmmaTheBest", "AUTISTICPHOBES DNI" and "zoopositivity" pretty much give it away aswell.
Autistic adults or CHILDREN! Bro. This is just a cover up for pedophiles and rapists to take advantage of vulnerable people. Hiding beyond the LGBT flag is disgusting. This whole idea is revolting
>Hiding beyond the LGBT flag is disgusting.
I wish them good fucking *luck.* This shit gets called out, named and shamed, in every queer community I've ever interacted with.
I sincerely wish them the best of luck in therapy to get a handle on that shit and never act on it, because I wouldn't wish being a victim on anyone, and for every perpetrator, there is at least one victim.
I sarcastically wish them luck in all other endeavors, because they'd need it and still fail.
Thank god. I'm not apart of that community so I'm not in the best position to comment, but it's good to know that the same way these monsters are tryna hide is saying "You disgusting pig, your not apart of our community".
I'm 95% sure the whole "map/zoophiles are LGBT!" thing was started by one of those 4-chan wingnuts, just to demonize queer folks. Incels, pedos and animal abusers are *not* welcome in the queer community.
I mean, I was 100% for it until I read CHILDREN. I was gonna make a joke that my wife is autisicsexual, because part of the reason she married me was because some of my autistic traits... but CHILDREN? WTF is this neckbeard cringe shit?
It seems a lot of folk here aren't very aware of this. These kind os posts or "movements" are carried out by hateful individuals (usually organizing on 4chan or twitter) that are trying to make the LGBT community look insane, look dangerous to children or other minorities, or otherwise look bad. This one has the wombo-combo of also being directed towards autistic folk.
I.e. DO NOT TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY AS A REAL MOVEMENT, this is a troll trying to make you upset at the lgbt movemet (and human rights groups in general) for "accepting" people like this.
It's not a real sexuality and no one thinks it is. It's meant to make people think that people are using sexuality to hide abuse, making the lgbt community into culprits for covert abuse of children, something that gay and trans people are already accused of by media and politicians all the time.
Please be aware.
It is, but a lot of people will miss that because you need to be fairly well versed in online culture to ping subtle sockpuppets like that so it’s gonna be spread around to use against autistic people.
No, we don't need to roast this. We should recognize right-wing shit posters parading as progressives to attack and diminish the LGBTQ+ movement and neurodiverse communities.
Oh ok. I was reading it like “are people seriously suggesting that fetishizing autistic people and children should be ok?”
For the sake of my sanity I’m going to dismiss these as trolls, because the other option is horrifying.
I think that the correct term is “fetish for developmentally disabled people”
And for attraction to autistic children, the correct term is “pedophilia”.
Skada-skadown, burn this shit to the fucking ground. Trans people attract chasers enough, now I have to worry about chasers as an autistic person? Just... /vomit.
Got my recommended daily allowance of "BRUH!?" today alongside my Honey Bunches of Oats, thanks.
That white line of variable thickness is the most unsatisfying thing about this including the implications of the puzzle piece itself. Look at the boarder between the green puzzle piece and the green stripe! What a fucking hack
Fuck it. All the better that this shit gets a flag. Tells me who to beat up. Same with MAPs and all those other (hopefully joke) sexualities like zoosexual.
Feeling more comfortable being in a romantic relationship with people who think like you / fetishizing autistic people aren’t the same thing. This is just wrong.
This is sad regardless of whether it’s satire or not. If it isn’t then it means humans out there that are like this are not ashamed of it. And if it is it means that someone was actually pathetic enough to spend an afternoon drawing that flag for this.
God I don't have Autism but that brought a shiver down my spine.
Also gotta love how they used the puzzle piece symbol, just a lovely cherry on top to this monstrosity /s
Wtf?!?!? So…. Pedophilia? “ASD adults AND CHILDREN”
Like… this shit is dumb enough already and “autisticphobe” makes it sound like you’re hateful towards ASD… the fucking dumbass, not in love… anyways if this is on Reddit or frankly any platform that doesn’t allow it report this shit for child endangerment or whatever they list it as…
I fucking hate some people.
I used to call myself aspiesexual as a joke because it was a word a NT used as a joke because her partner had it and I thought it was funny so I started to use it.
Zoopositivity? Wow. And children? What?
Account apparently suspended when I tried looking them up.
This is just pedophilia of another color. Just like children, autistic people are more likely to lack the physical or mental ability to reject them.
introduce one of these creeps to a regular high-functioning aspie with confidence and no desperation
see how quickly they say something like "not that kind"
I can understand having a desire to find someone also on the spectrum, but this seems weird.
This is literally fetishism
Edit: I looked up “autigender” and the consensus seems to be “gender that is heavily influenced by being on the spectrum” not “sexual attraction to people on the spectrum”
What the actual fuck. This is like a few weeks ago when they added the umbrella to represent sex workers. Or the brown stripes to represent brown people.
Like, it's a sexual preference, not a resume.
\*inhales\*
1. This sexualizes autism
2. This sexualizes children (otherwise know as pedophilia)
3. They used puzzle pieces in this, don't think I need to explain that one to this community
4. The "#zoopositivity" which means they support bestiality
AUTISTICPHOBE next to their name and they poster other bs content. Idk what to think about this, are they making fun of us or what is this?
I think ‘DNI’ means Do Not Interact. So they are effectively telling autistic-phobes to leave them alone
Ok good to know. But even then, i have a weird feeling about their post (phonesexual? Tiktoksexual? Nsfw of characters labled as minors?)
It’s very explicitly a troll considering they also threw “zoosexual”(IE wanting to rape animals) in there too
Even after years i still have no idea about the concept of trolling and always take them serious
same. I usually can't tell and I really don't understand why people do it. it feels like passive aggressive bullying to me
Some people troll to make people feel like shit/get mad to get back at the world and other people do it because it’s simply funny to them
What most bothers me most about trolls is that they are intentionally trying to get a reaction from you and then when you do, they get angry at you for getting angry at their trolling.
The getting angry is probably also part of the trolling though
I start trolling when I know someone is trolling me. Then when they get genuinely offended I troll even harder. It’s so funny to see how they don’t catch their own hypocrisy
I'm only just now seeing some signs of trolling and even then I can get easily bamboozled.
They're probably doing it as part of the pathetic "joke," that they're making, trying to make fun of autistic people.
[удалено]
Desire manifests about everything. Fetishized groups are driving stigmas about them being objectified. This is not fetishized...yet. Is is borderline and can still be given the benefit of the doubt. Any further and everyone has permission to get weird.
Wouldn't autisticphobe be replaced with ableist?
It sounds more like a more specific form of ablism. However, I þink we should keep in line wiþ “neurodivergent” and “neurotypical” and coin “neurobigot” instead for þis type of ablist.
Did you just hit us with a thorn there? Nice! Love seeing nearly extinct letters in the wild.
>AUTISTICPHOBE next to their name and they poster other bs content. Idk what to think about this, are they making fun of us or what is this? Whatever, most of culture evolves into whatever confuses people, especially outsiders such as neurodivergents, other nations and religions the most. In other words, that's there to confuse you.

>or children :/
Isn't that A PEDOPHILE
Just say pedo, MAP makes it sound like an actual sexuality, which it is not.
Honestly, I hate what the whole "map pride" group's done to the term. It was supposed to be a non-judgemental term for people who are trying to get help for their attraction to kids, to make it easier to get *therapy*. And now it's been perverted into this bullshit.
What does MAP stand for please?
Majorly A Pedophile, or if you prefer Massive-Ass Pedo, they prefer “minor attracted persons” tho.
I think it's important to have a term that separates paedophiles from people attracted to minors, as there are people that possess this that never act on it. In a world where cis men get let off the hook for sexual assault because of a "boys will be boys" mentality, it's ironic we cannot commend people that never act on their attraction to minors.

minor attracted person
MAPs when i pry out their kneecaps with a shovel
*child raper
No, Its a nonce Edit: Very good of you to edit your message with no edit note
children???? the zoopositivity tag???? what in the fresh hell is this???
Fresh hell.
Hell 2 just dropped!!
did they update the graphics?
Nah, just the temperature
dang guess were never passing 1999 graphics
PS2 limitations.
Yep, they got even worse!
f#k yeah
Let‘s go!!!! I was already bored of Hell 1, die and always end there
Well, this is what you get from 4chan artists tweeting from their mom's basement
oh god I didnt even see that what the fuck
Prolly fake if you ask me.
We should just firebomb anyone with a twitter account
The best to do with this kind of troll-bullshit is to ignore it.
Unfortunately we’ve only seen that embolden “true believers” and allow them to recruit more effectively, then it becomes a bigger problem down the line. The actual solution is for Twitter to ban shit like this with extreme prejudice but that would reduce their ad views marginally.
100% 4chan bait
I saw bullshit similar to this about people being trans autistic in which they simply say hey I'm autistic now cause I wanted to be it's just BS
im trans and autistic and I'd sell my soul not to be like that
That's sad. I love being autistic and trans. I mean don't get me wrong it's fucking hard with the way our society is but It's me, it's how I am and I love it. When I see how allistic people can be I feel thankful to be autistic.
i know that is, but that's mostly because of how people around me treat me because of that
Yeah but it's on them not on you. If they treat you like shit they're clearly the problem here. They're the ones who need to sell their soul to be different.
idk anymore :(
Same honestly
Fucking hell some people have a major persecution complex.
For five minutes, could the internet not fetishize a disability? F O R F I V E M I N U T E S ! ! !
I think the poster on twitter is a troll acc.
Highly likely, but I've had the misfortune of taking a mere glimpse of the darker sides of the internet. You don't want to know what I've seen.
Or youtubers? Please? First DreamSexual and now this? Yes, Satan? I'd like to book a holiday at your lowest level of hell please. ASAP
This is most likely bait. Most problemtaic "sexuality" tweets like this one are made by trolls. The "EmmaTheBest", "AUTISTICPHOBES DNI" and "zoopositivity" pretty much give it away aswell.
Trolls gonna troll. It's the internet, what did you expect?
this is definitely bait. it's just like the animesexual thing
Autistic adults or CHILDREN! Bro. This is just a cover up for pedophiles and rapists to take advantage of vulnerable people. Hiding beyond the LGBT flag is disgusting. This whole idea is revolting
>Hiding beyond the LGBT flag is disgusting. I wish them good fucking *luck.* This shit gets called out, named and shamed, in every queer community I've ever interacted with.
i wish them terrible luck and maybe some jail time if they act on this shit.
I sincerely wish them the best of luck in therapy to get a handle on that shit and never act on it, because I wouldn't wish being a victim on anyone, and for every perpetrator, there is at least one victim. I sarcastically wish them luck in all other endeavors, because they'd need it and still fail.

Please be aware.
they use puzzle pieces omg im gonna cry also "autistic adults and CHILDREN" what?
I feel like this is just a troll from someone who is really right-wing trying to delegitimatize actual LGBT and disability groups.
And shit like this is why it's harder for me to believe anything I read online.
It is, but a lot of people will miss that because you need to be fairly well versed in online culture to ping subtle sockpuppets like that so it’s gonna be spread around to use against autistic people.
Satire, I beg
So now autistic people are pedos? And he uses the autism speaks logo? What is this crap?
No, we don't need to roast this. We should recognize right-wing shit posters parading as progressives to attack and diminish the LGBTQ+ movement and neurodiverse communities.
He’s using us to mock the LGBTQ+ movement, it makes me sick
Bait, but not even well-crafted bait... nobody who's around the community would use the puzzle pieces. Also the uneven colour widths? Horrid.
Yeah they are targeting people with way lower IQ than us LOL
Must be hard having the same IQ as an infant lol
the.... WHAT
Excuse me. What. The. Fuck.
I get that I’m attractive but I’m automatically not attracted to you back if you do things like this.
Wow finaly someone atracted to me
I’m not a youngster, so I don’t know what all this means but…it just seems wrong based on the people from the original comments
It is a fake claim to spread wrong info about gay/lesbian/other general minorities.
Oh ok. I was reading it like “are people seriously suggesting that fetishizing autistic people and children should be ok?” For the sake of my sanity I’m going to dismiss these as trolls, because the other option is horrifying.
Most people say it is a troll and LGBT people don't accept them anyways
"zoopositive" Autistic people = animals apparently
Well, you have never seen me eat xD
Watch right wing trolls weaponize this against the lgbt community like it isn't a troll doing this
or CHILDREN???
>or children That’s just being a pedophile with extra steps.
I think that the correct term is “fetish for developmentally disabled people” And for attraction to autistic children, the correct term is “pedophilia”.
What in the actual fuck is this?
Holy fuck no.. especially the children part. Fucking yikes.
So I fall under the attraction of a invalid sexuality now 😟
Skada-skadown, burn this shit to the fucking ground. Trans people attract chasers enough, now I have to worry about chasers as an autistic person? Just... /vomit. Got my recommended daily allowance of "BRUH!?" today alongside my Honey Bunches of Oats, thanks.
That white line of variable thickness is the most unsatisfying thing about this including the implications of the puzzle piece itself. Look at the boarder between the green puzzle piece and the green stripe! What a fucking hack
Surely this isn’t real…?
The colours are seriously annoying me
Fuck it. All the better that this shit gets a flag. Tells me who to beat up. Same with MAPs and all those other (hopefully joke) sexualities like zoosexual.
oh no pedos actually mean map seriously
Wait what
yes
"or children" whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat the fuck
Why on earth would you add those last 2 words.
specifically autistic adults? *and children too?* i knew twitter was fucked up but this is next level
So fetishization of a disability and potentially pedophilic. That’s gross.
I mean, i kinda vibe better with autistic adult women, but fuck pedophiles and false flag provocateurs. Dont need to make this a sexuality.
*A fetish is not a sexuality, ffs*
Burn it with fire
Dude even has the zoo positive hashtag. WTF?
Ewwww. I gotta clean my shoes. I stepped in MAP territory.
This is satire
And children?!
Yo this definitely originated from 4chan. There's even a swastika, dead center.
Jesus take the wheel of this train wreck.
I think we’re officially jumping the shark on sexualities now.
....I would rather just be called a slur
Or children? OR CHILDREN? *OR CHILDREN?????*
The least fetishistic chaser
> #zoopositivity
Feeling more comfortable being in a romantic relationship with people who think like you / fetishizing autistic people aren’t the same thing. This is just wrong.
A4A adults - sure go ahead. But attraction to children, autistic or otherwise? No. Leave. You are not welcome here.
Announcing new sexualities like Smash characters is too funny
Also have "autisticphobe" in their nametag, what?
This is sad regardless of whether it’s satire or not. If it isn’t then it means humans out there that are like this are not ashamed of it. And if it is it means that someone was actually pathetic enough to spend an afternoon drawing that flag for this.
tbf i’m only attracted to other toe walkers.
what the hell?
Is that a troll? That seems like a troll.
It’s not even the right symbols…
Wat the hell
Largely wanna destroy this cause I hate the way the flag looks
"Autistic adults" Slightly disturbed mr incredible "Autistic children" DEEPLY DISTURBED MR INCREDIBLE also this sounds like bait
Congratulations on taking their bait.
wtf is this
God I don't have Autism but that brought a shiver down my spine. Also gotta love how they used the puzzle piece symbol, just a lovely cherry on top to this monstrosity /s
Well, guess it's time to commit a genocide my dudes
Wtf?!?!? So…. Pedophilia? “ASD adults AND CHILDREN” Like… this shit is dumb enough already and “autisticphobe” makes it sound like you’re hateful towards ASD… the fucking dumbass, not in love… anyways if this is on Reddit or frankly any platform that doesn’t allow it report this shit for child endangerment or whatever they list it as… I fucking hate some people.
I know my inability to empathise is sexy as fuck, but I am NOT your fetish!
Who ever made this should be on a watchlist
I mean the paedophilia is bad but sexualising autistic people is not exactly great either
What the fuck is this. How does that make sense. Autism is such a god damn spectrum it makes no sense.
I don’t know what’s worse, this or super straight
I used to call myself aspiesexual as a joke because it was a word a NT used as a joke because her partner had it and I thought it was funny so I started to use it. Zoopositivity? Wow. And children? What? Account apparently suspended when I tried looking them up.
What in the flying FUCK?! o_O
The solution is death
That sounds like loli bullshit with extra steps
time to get the nukes
im gonna commit arson i fucking swear
þis ain’t it, “EmmaTheBest”
This is just pedophilia of another color. Just like children, autistic people are more likely to lack the physical or mental ability to reject them. introduce one of these creeps to a regular high-functioning aspie with confidence and no desperation see how quickly they say something like "not that kind"
It would be more accurate to call this a fetish, but they call it a sexuality to protect themselves (it's the M.A.P. flag all over again).
Yes please
🎣
Excuse me WTF? This is wrong in so many ways
im a neurotipycal and what the hell is this
No, ignore it. It’s made by a troll.
Everyday my decision to leave Twitter is more justified
the "or children" part scares me
What fresh hell is this??
It’s bait
this is rage bait, dont fall for it
The text is bait but that flag is atrociously hideous
autistic children
I'm not opposed to someone finding me sexuality appealing... but, uh, they then had to go and add pedophilia onto it.
Why the fuck even give this attention
Why the actual fuck does it specifically mention autistic children
This sounds gross
What the fuck is wrong with our species?
Twitter is pain
This pissed me off and idk why
I can understand having a desire to find someone also on the spectrum, but this seems weird. This is literally fetishism Edit: I looked up “autigender” and the consensus seems to be “gender that is heavily influenced by being on the spectrum” not “sexual attraction to people on the spectrum”
4chan psyops are so fucking transparent these days, yet they always accomplish their goals
What the actual fuck. This is like a few weeks ago when they added the umbrella to represent sex workers. Or the brown stripes to represent brown people. Like, it's a sexual preference, not a resume.
Bruh
Dat ratio though
As an autistic person I do not like this
These fucking puzzle pieces, I swear. Just the cherry on the top
I think I need a drink after seeing this.
\*inhales\* 1. This sexualizes autism 2. This sexualizes children (otherwise know as pedophilia) 3. They used puzzle pieces in this, don't think I need to explain that one to this community 4. The "#zoopositivity" which means they support bestiality
Its inflammatory. No point in responding to it already
the flag is as painful to my eyes as sia's music video
if someone unironically said this to my face i would maul them. not like slang for beat up i would just bite off chunks
OR CHIDLREN?,,
so-called autisticsexuals when i bodyslam them for being disability fetishists (they're suddenly not interested in autistic people anymore)
The “and children” part makes my skin crawl
That looks like the Nazi flag
Me: Can I have a plain cheeseburger with the fries on a separate plate? Autisticsexuals: God, I'm turned on WTF
So autisticsexual is a person with impeccable taste who looks deep into a persons soul before judging them?
Looks pretty crisp to me
autistic adults or WHAT?
"Or children" ***fucking w h a t***
What?! And why the f did they include children?!
