1. Scholtz confirmed a redditor.

2. Marie-Agnes Strack-Zimmermann ftw…

3. You’re so close to having another one of your tantrums revealing yourself as Russian today. 

4. She’s not wrong.

   Germany and America protect Russia, by prohibiting Ukraine from striking all necessary military targets in self defense with NATO weapons. They want to be seen as Ukraine’s allies, without actually being allies.

5. I hadn’t actually considered the autism angle… but now you mention it…

6. Ableism is not cool.

7. As a diagnosed autistic person I really wish people wouldn’t throw it around as an insult/stereotype. 

8. Well the “autistic” part of that insult was unnecessary but the rest of it sure seems on point. I fuckin hate know-it-alls too.

9. I get being angry, but can we not call people autistic as an insult of denigration.

   As someone on the spectrum, it really gets on my nerves when people use it like that.

10. can we just stop throwing autism as an casual insult?

11. As someone on the autistic spectrum, I really wish that people will stop throwing autism around as an insult.

    Ableism isn’t cool. While it is frustrating to watch Scholz chickening out on doing the right thing, ableism isn’t any more better.

    Hope that the German electorate will show that theit support for their autism community by voting her out in the next election.
