I skimmed a transcript just now because I wanted to understand why people are so disproportionately mad about it. She mentions Autism Speaks and does not immediately condemn it. Is that it? I wouldn’t say that counts as being wrong on everything.
I’m tired of (especially internet) discourse where shouting which camp you belong to is most important.

It leads to seeing fellow humans as monsters just because they are wrong about something.
