>>50873018Isnt a fad, just visibility.
Before the internet people aould rarsly get news of thing not relevant to them, so thing like earthquake, sickness, rain, etc where percive more by the local standard.
Not to mention how autism is being ACTUALLY recognise only in the last 2 decades, meanwhile how manny people go about their lives not knowing it?
And as the Saurie tweet expose, profesional are old fart, so most would use old terminology or asumption.
Ultimatly there is also the case of groups, where the autist gather?
The internet in comunities where their diferences are either acepted or apreciated.
Ergo, 4-chan and the whole of animation/anime comunity.
We are all autistic anon, just acept it :p
