Apparently, being autistic means I "create toxic work environments."
I love how ableism in the workplace is now just out in the open lol. In another sub, I was talking about my issues in the workplace, namely that people just hate autistic women. It doesn't matter how nice or polite I am, I'm always punished. I was literally screamed at by a coworker because I VERY POLITELY asked for a bit of space and to not be interrupted because I had some time-sensitive work I had to get done.
But no, it's ME who's in the wrong. To quote the comment, "your skills don't matter, how you get along with the team matters." and people like me"create a toxic work environment." From being autistic.
Oh, and I got a "warning" on my account for replying and saying it's incredibly ableist to act like I'm inherently rude, unprofessional, and toxic simply because I'm autistic and a little weird. Apparently that's attacking someone's identity. Must be my inherent autistic toxicity, I guess.
