Pre-2000s autism was just the niggas who live-action role-played as dungeons and dragons and that sheit
>In the early 1980s, the estimated prevalence of autism in the United States was roughly 1 to 5 in every 10,000 children, or approximately 0.01% to 0.05% They didn't exist! Those r just nerds See https://youtu.be/gCyrKJg-1VM?si=Z2McnNk-mXLQPxD_
Imo I feel like some autism could be a social contagion Maybe durin the days the .1% autists who grew up on n64 made these unusual vids The kids saw them and synthetically absorbed their behaviour? Thats why autism has probably increased so much notwithstanding false diagnoses
