"Neurodiverse = wrong/broken/evil" is a brainworm that I wish would die. Sucks that it probably never will.
The worlds most evil people are able and "normal" for lack of a better word anyway.

In addition to being bad for neurodivergent people, it's also awful for understanding society. I know liberals wouldn't have a class analysis or anything anyways, but so often their first reaction to something bad happening that they don't understand is diagnosing the people responsible with mental illnesses. What possible praxis could follow from that kind of view?
Even when used metaphorically (e.g., "Jeff Bezos is a sociopath"), in my experience, it always gets reified and becomes an obstacle for actual understanding.
It very easily leads to eugenics. If the person is doing something bad because they are mentally ill, and there is no other reason, then only getting rid of the mentally ill can fix society.
