The trigger warning is because the topic can be emotionally heavy for autistics since it talks about the social abuse autistics endure and how we react to it by masking. The guy has an apparent justifiably angry tone throughout the video. Otherwise, I think it is fine and there are no sensory issues to worry about.

For those that downvoted, I would like to know why. Why did you think that it should not be seen by others?

    it would allow narcissists to seek out people they can exploit.

    They totally do. It’s sad that there are people like that, but it’s true. Narcissists 100% go hunting for autistics to develop that sense of power they need to have.

      I wouldn’t say that it’s specific to autistic people, but narcissists go looking to anyone who has qualities that they can exploit. This includes autistic people who cope by being narcissists and exploiting other people who they see as lesser then them.

      My wife has a creepy uncle who probably has autism and is in denial about it and he copes by being extremely judgmental and constantly puts other autistic people down. My sister was diagnosed with autism before transitioning and he would constantly make fun of her for being a virgin before she transitioned.
