Propaganda:

Intense hyperfocus, social anxiety, overanalyzing, brutal honesty, internal monologuing to process emotions and situations, childhood behavioral issues, potential sensory issues (audible + shirt tags. He always has the shirt tag sticking out of the shirt), under or overexpressive facial expressions, pattern recognition, depression, being singled out as the problem and living with internalized hatred, at first cynical outlook which is sadly a common outlook, emotional dysregulation, social withdrawal, difficulty understanding other's point of view.

Any other details:

A lot of people say he's a good representation of social anxiety and guilt. Some have mentioned C-PTSD. Though my autistic friend and I relate to him to a degree that's undeniable and I'd love to know if others can see themselves in him too. The anime film adaptation version is watered down but many autistic people have expressed relating to the hallway scene, with the X's crossing out faces and the music slowly drowning out noise as he covers his ears.

as an autistic person, do you prefer written or verbal methods of communication?

written (e.g. text, email, posts, letters, notes)

verbal (e.g. phone call, voice chat, face to face, audio messages)

i prefer a few methods from both categories / nuance

no preference / i don't know

i'm not autistic

I've seen multiple memes and even made jokes myself about how potatoes are the always reliable safe food for autistics, especially those with ARFID or other eating troubles.

This post is inclusive of self-diagnosed autistics and ARFID
