Meme: Two panels. Left panel is an Uno card that reads, "Understand situational context or draw 25." The right panel is labelled Me and has a drawing of the number 25 with the pencil placed underneath.

caption: I don’t struggle with autism. I’m actually very good at it.

Image: Lisa Simpson giving a presentation with a determined disposition.
Caption on the screen: The "double-empathy problem" is misnamed because it is not a problem. It is a theory that explains why we observe limited empathy between autistic and non-autistic individuals. Not only is it not a problem, it is a solution because it helps us understand why things are the way they are. Stop calling it a problem. It is now the "interneurotype empathy divide"...or something. Idk, but it is not a problem.

2nd: Pam from the office labelled as Me saying, "They're the same person."
Edit: Gemini believes that they're 2 different people.
