I believe that is not right. Autism is a serious mental illness. I am someone who suffers from autism and I see memes making fun of autistic kids every day. This makes me feel really bad.

There’s autistic kids on the site and while I don’t have any autistic friends I’ve seen autism in action and it’s sad. Imagine what they go through!

Bullying is not ok on this site or anywhere else. Unfortunately it happens. If there is a specific instance of someone continuously harassing a user it should be reported to one of the mods as it would be a pretty clear violation of site TOS.

Good I flagged an image a couple of days ago because of that and it was taken down.

Glad you reported it, and glad it was taken down. We try to watch out for that stuff but there is a lot of content on the site and only a few of us to keep an eye on it. Best practice is to flag it or report it directly, that way it's much more likely to be seen.

Can u send me the profile link

Bullying people because of Autism is just wrong. Plain wrong. No excuses

What the f**k. People are bullying autistic people. What the actual f**k

Sorry about the profanity. But people bullying autistic people is disgusting

True dat

Bullying is never an acceptable thing, but how do we know when a member has autism? And when can we tell if the person doing the bullying does not have autism themselves? Thanks for any advice you can give.

Not to mention "having autism" is a big trend these days with seemingly everyone mid-twenties and under laying claim to having it.
Such has facilitated some playing victim while some also using it as an excuse to act out.

Back when I was young, I worked with Autistic youth, as a volunteer then also as a job - this being when it was classified as a type of retardation and coincidentally long before it had any cachet. Even the highest functioning couldn't function on social media as these kids do today, and to think how they suffered while nowadays all the kool kidz are high fiving each other on it is beyond sad.

Sure, some genuinely have it, but for all too many it's become an attention getting label to exploit.

Also, while it may make some more vulnerable to bullying, how can that mean that when such happens to others it ain't so bad just because they're not impaired enough to qualify for suffering? The notion is ludicrous and hypocritical, as bullying is still bullying regardless of a self-diagnosis test taken on FB.

I have an autistic grandson, and agree with everything you just said!

I'd wonder - or rather, tried not to - what kind of future they'd face down the road, and playing King of the ASD Hill on social media wasn't an foreseeable option back then.

You'll see it if you come across some of the memes the hordes of kids swamping this site pounce upon, wielding it like some sort of gilded plastic sword to bludgeon each other with.
That's not being a victim, that's trying to be the opposite.

lol

I am appalled that something like that would happen, irl or otherwise. It is totally unacceptable for anyone to bully, no matter what is wrong with them.

it's appalling that this question even needs to be asked

It’s obviously not right

I have autism, so I think that it's an awful, awful thing.

I feel you

That's just ****ed up. I swear to god if I find someone doing this--

Why would you even cater to or talk about people who do this because we all know it’s wrong

I agree with everyone else on this meme

I don't really see that on imgflip as much as I see racism and homophobia.

Theyshouldgotohell

bullying anyone, anywhere, in any form is absolutely wrong.

Bullying is always unexceptable no matter what. I'm fine with memes that are mildly insulting, but it goes overboard too many times.

*unacceptable

Sorry, I had to. Sorry for your plight.
