      It’s more like several spectra. They sometimes place them crossing each other in the middle so that it looks like a web.

      (I’m assuming this was a genuine question. If you’re trying to make a point I’m afraid I missed it 🤷)

      Yes, it’s a spectrum. Autistic people are as a varied a group as any other, and you’ll see different traits in different individuals, or even in the same individual at different stages of life or different settings.

      And that means you can’t point to one stereotyped feature and say that disqualifies you. Which was - ha ha! - the point of the video!
