Original Note:
Allison Pearson has used "on the spectrum" as an insult towards people she wishes to disparage, eight times. Autistic people do not lack "emotional intelligence". Allison is using hate speech and associating a disability with things she disapproves of. https://theconversation.com/people-with-autism-dont-lack-emotions-but-often-have-difficulty-identifying-them-25225 https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/everyday-neurodiversity/202101/are-autistic-people-empathic-is-everyone-else
