I asked if it was price gouging. I asked if it was illegal. They were questions.

And the idea that you can "help" an autistic person is disgusting and insulting to them. I am not autistic, but I have very close people I love who are ASD and you are acting like there's something seriously wrong with them. There isn't. And I hope the mods take care of you and your disgusting ableism. This is my last response.

They read like rhetorical questions at first, but if you read my comment again, you'll see where I pointed out how, after we explained why it wasn't price gouging, you insisted that it was.

And the idea that you can “help” an autistic person is disgusting and insulting to them.

The idea that they are beyond help sounds much more insulting to me, but what do I know?

By the way, the opposite of "neurotypical" is not "autistic," but it's convenient that you zeroed in on one particular form of neurodivergence due to your own ignorance.

I am not autistic, but I have very close people I love who are ASD and you are acting like there’s something seriously wrong with them.

No, I don't know them. There is something seriously wrong with you, though. Not because you don't understand basic social cues, but because you revel in your refusal to understand social cues, and refuse to consider alternate perspectives. There's nothing wrong with missing social cues, the problem is stubbornly insisting that anybody who says anything you don't quite understand is a liar, even after you figure out what they're saying.

This is my last response.

Good riddance.
