>Autism simply got tied up with entitlements and the diagnosis has been grossly abused as a lever to get access to said entitlements
I just love when narrowminded Americans (I would wager 1000$ that the poster is from that country) assume the thing that happens in their city/state/country is a worldwide phenomenon with the rest of us 8 billion people.
And even better writing in this snarky obfuscating style so the rest of us don't have a clue what they're talking about. Entitlements???
In my (EU) country talking about your mental issues is simply not done, let alone your actual diagnosis.
