Ah yes, that definitely is true. I think that one of the main issues with most current mainstream discourse is that we're so quick to label everything as bigotry or some form of phobia or supremacy without even examining where it stems from. People can't say that certain elements of autism might make people of the neurotype more vulnerable to harmful ideologies without it either ending with people villanizing autism entirely or the person making the claim being accused of some form of ableism. And yes, we do often confuse misinformation or ignorance for hatred too.
