  • Ive a similar perspective and I live with multiple neurodivergent people in my house. It seems like a visceral reaction that doesn’t even make it to the brain. Just like your hand jerks back if you touch something hot, they immediately gag or cough or itch or whatever.

    They ate or touched one thing one time, decided they didn’t like it, and now their limbic system protects them from anything similar to it.

    Find people who do care

    Tell me to stfu and you go find your own thing to contribute to

    All those people will happily connect you with more you can do locally, even if it’s just going to an event and participating and maybe bring a friend. Bonus, the food is usually bangin
