Well, it has happened before, too.

I feel the same when adults are talking the most disgusting shit around me in public. They don’t get the hate kids do, though.
I understand not every predatory sexual behavior towards young people is pedophilic, because young people vary in age and maturity.
However, this is such a strange and uncalled “technically correct” reply, why would we care enough to differentiate between hebephile or whatever it is called and pedophile. Nobody cares, it’s still predatory and gross behavior no matter the name.
It looks like Jeff Bezos
It’s very important to give context on the diagnosis. Any psychiatric diagnosis is heavily tied to its historical context. Autism as a diagnosis was not the same in the 1970s with the first DSM as it was in 1994 with DSM-IV and we didn’t talk about spectrum until 2013 with DSM-V. “Back in our day we called that an engineer” that’s because some things that are listed as disordered were not a disorder back then.
But yes, I get your point that while some would be put in institutions, others wouldn’t be seen as disordered. I should have given it some thought before my comment.
I think that some of my reluctance with OP is that not all autism in the past was the “quirky engineer” one, there were already people being severely abused for a condition that didn’t even have a name yet.

I know this is just a meme but autistic people were probably less seen as eccentric, cute and quirky; more likely put in mental institutions where they were abused and in some cases killed. :/

Kids are people. There are some annoying, there are some nice, overall they’re okay. If a person wouldn’t say “I laugh when adults get hurt because adults annoy me just by being adults”, then they shouldn’t say the same about kids.
In short, I hate people who hate kids.
