Thoughts:
1. #Unmasking is great, difficult but IME a good thing... unless it causes difficulties. No point doing this with people who are going to make your life worse because of it.
2. If my mask is in effect, my little allistic self, a protection in a hostile world, I should treat him with respect and kindness, because he's on my side.

3. Therefore I have an allistic ally! I've long thought blaming and criticising allistic people was a dead end and never did that. Lots of us do wrong things out of ignorance and stay stuck unable to change that, so better to make friends where that works and find better where it doesn't. #ActuallyAutistic 2/2
