Also if you talk about how you are autistic, and Chris gives autistics a bad name, and how much better you are than Chris, this is the second, more overlooked definition of A-Logging.

I wonder why some autistics prefer to post something like this (Chris gives autistics a bad name, I'm autistic but I'm better than Chris etc.) before they post about Chris.

Usually that's the first opinion many of them have of him. They have enough to deal with in terms of how people view them due to their social handicaps and the last thing they need is for Christian Weston Chandler to become a poster child for autistics.

I'm not autism-spectrum nor am I really familiar with any politics surrounding it, so forgive me if this is a really stupid question: is being perceived as a Chris-like weirdo a real fear among autistics? I mean, when I think of autism, I generally think of folks who have a few weird fixations and are harder than most to interact with, but tend to skew more towards the Ulillillia end of things than OPL.

(I know Ulillilla isn't autistic but he's too perfect of an anti-Chris to not use as an example)

I guess. I mean, that's how I'm interpreting that particular reaction. I could be wrong, though. I'm not autistic either, and I haven't really had this discussion with anyone who is, so I'm making an assumption.

Chris does have autism and does display traits of autism. What I'm assuming many autistics don't like is that mixed in with that are traits not specific to autism, like stupidity and mental delusion. Also his particular personality aspects, like his strong temper, egocentricity, laziness, and bigotry.

Really I think they may fear that stigma against autism will be conflated with a stigma against drinking one's own semen on camera, incontinence, and transvestism.
