Please remember that the “self diagnoser who spent an hour on webMD/Google/Wikipedia” is a strawman. Most self diagnosis is thoroughly researched, thoroughly questioned, and can take years.

Most of the people who self diagnose using Wikipedia or a single quiz are like…12. In case you weren’t aware, 12 year olds are allowed to mess up, and putting responsibility for supposedly undermining a movement on the backs of young tweens/teens is incredibly fucked up. There’s also a decent chance that they’re STILL right.

So, you know. Fuck off. Stop trying to “protect” me from people who are ON MY SIDE and need my support.
