Is she really autistic, /v/?
>Samus is trans
>>342988272
Yes, they wanted a character the players could relate to.
>>342988272
that's pandery as hell.
OP pastebin that article I don't want to give a site like that any revenue
>>342988272
It was implied in her comic I think
and she's a half robot poo-in-the-loo who is being exploited by a cyber punk 'kill the poor' company
of course she's an autist
>>342988272
Yes, she states it right in her comic
She is a video game character
>>342988272
yes and pharah is an amputee
>>342988272
>literally retarded waifus in the west
KEKSIMUS.
>>342988272
That comic quote is a fucking stretch.
"Where I fit on the spectrum" could mean a plethora of things.
Anyone who actually believes this without Blizzard clearly stating it is retarded.

what about her is autistic is my question? she works in a team based environment, she builds things...I don't get where the autism came from
>>342988695
>from literally nowhere
>Sanjay has always said I was… different. Everyone has. Asking where I fit on the spectrum. It used to bother me. Because I knew it was true. It doesn’t bother me anymore. Because I can do things nobody else can do.
So she can poo in loo?
>>342988617
Like 90% of the heroes are amputees. There's a crazy amount of mechanical arms in this game.
>>342988695
>she builds things
Monotonous shit like building is why autists flock to Minecraft. Some autists are pretty creative, too.
>Offer free housing and business for third-world country, all they have to do in exchange is be your employees
>They rebel and refuse to take your offer because they don't want to work, they want to just keep hanging out in their third-world shithole with the burning garbage cans and the mud huts
>"What the fuck, what a bunch of assholes, I don't understand what their fucking problem is"
>culd symmetra b autism??? she has 1 of the unlimited number of symptoms??????
I hate gaming journalism
As an autist, I really don't get why this nigga is acting like it's such a big fucking deal.
That's kind of a delayed reaction, wasn't this known about for months now?
>>342988695
ive only played the game, the only thing that stood out to me about her was that she seemed to lack a personality compared to the other heroes

>sits in a corner building a sentry nest
she's avoiding people and playing with her legos
she's got the 'tism
>>342988695
The comic says the word 'spectrum' so the clickbaity assumption was made
>>342988272
Ok, i kinda understand being proud of being a faggot, because you are oppressed and shit, but wht's the deal with that autism pride shit? You are literally proud of being socially inept retard?
Yes, and Pharah is a quadruple amputee

Everyone is on the autism spectrum, that's why it's called a spectrum
>>342988843
>Asking where I fit on the spectrum
It's such a beautiful line about the spectrum of light and how light projection/bending lead to the development of her society. Leave it to Blizzard to fuck that idea altogether and make it a line about literally being autistic.
>>342988272
Everyone is one the spectrum you dunce.

WHAT IS THAT. Someone answer me please, I am mystified.
>>342989380
Jesus fucking Christ what is this creature?
>>342989505
Autists shouldn't be playing games, they should be receiving electroshock therapy.
>>342988632
>>342989026
No it doesn't.
Aside from maybe some sexuality and gender spectrum shite the term spectrum in the context it was used is clearly talking about her being autistic.
That's why she does weird shit like fix paintings in social/business situations were its inappropriate but she disregards it anyway.
Anyway, Symmetras problems as a character don't derive from her being autistic, they derive her from being personality-less in-game. She's so fucking boring in-game. They need to make her more autistic or something so that she isn't just boring pooindaloo science lady
>>342988272
No, it's a play on words because the company she works for WORKS WITH FUCKING LIGHT. LIGHT SPECTRUMS. JESUS FUCK THE PROJECTION IS OUT OF CONTROL.
>>342989380
DELETE THIS
POO
>>342989221
the reason it's a spectrum is because it's very fucking general and vague. Most of the people who fall on the higher functioning side could just learn to assimilate into society. Fuck, if I can hide my autist-esque /v/ power level at parties and get laid then anyone should be able to if they got some fuckin sense

Considering you overwatch cucks just made another overwatch thread, im sure youre the autistic one. This isnt even about gameplay....its about non issues
As someone who works with autistic children daily that's really kind of offensive. In order to appear progressive they made a character with the special snowflake kind of fake autism, where she's incredibly skilled at what she does in exchange for being kind of awkward. In trying to hoist autism up on the pedestal, they fail to portray what actual autism looks like, which would be Symmetra rolling around on the floor hitting herself and screaming until her orderlies can calm her down long enough to change her diaper.
People try to be inclusive towards autism, but don't want anything to do with actual, real life autism.
>>342988272

>No it doesn't.
Yes, it does.
"Where I fit on the spectrum" could just be a general way of describing where you fit in society or where you personality fits.
Autism wasn't classified didn't gain the title Spectrum Disorder until very recently.
Not to mention that you're fucking retarded for thinking that autism, sexuality, and gender are the only things that possibly exist on a spectrum.
>>342989372
is that by the same guy that makes these?
>>342989678
Nigga she sees a crooked picture and in the middle of talking to some mucky muck her bosses are trying to convince to join them she goes to fix it and thinks to herself how the fuck someone could stomach that imperfection.
>>342989836
>which would be Symmetra rolling around on the floor hitting herself and screaming until her orderlies can calm her down long enough to change her diaper.
LOL
i think most of the people on here who say they have autism actually dont. how sad is your life that you need to wear a mental illness as a fake badge of honor?
>>342989624
In that case, all of /v/ would be undergoing electro-shock therapy.
Then again, /v/ doesn't really play games.

His poor mom. What a caring, patient lady, even if she sounds so tired of it all.
"Unless I let you film him, no one will know this is true autism. A lot parents don't want you to see that."
She is clearly tired of all the pandering herself. Every time she sees someone screaming about autistic pride, she probably dies a little on the inside as the "REEEEEEE" echoes through her brain.
A POO IN THE LOO TECH SUPPORT
>>342989836
Maybe she just has aspergers
>>342989973
Actual autist here.

No because she is not real.
>>342989939
Nigga that's called OCD not autism.
>>342989424
Sometimes it's nice to remind yourself of the fact that that is what actual autism looks like, not those "I'm shy and suck at socializing" pseudo disorders which are super hip to have right now.

>>342989221
>>342989380
Being proud of a fucking disorder and turning it into an identity is fucking stupid.
I have OCD. It fucked with me for a long as time, and I rarely think about it or mention having it, because it has nothing to fucking do with me. There is no fucking way in hell you would ever catch me saying some shit like "proud to have an anxiety disorder which fucks with me constantly in my daily life"
Its a fucking disorder. It's not even something you did yourself. Being proud of having autism is like being proud of being tall, only stupider.

>>342989836
Since you work with autists I assume you do realise that it comes in various degrees of severity and not every autist shits themself. Not every autist is going to be as bad as what you are used to seeing. I know seven autists and none of them to my knowledge have shit themself.

You haave high functioning too, which you'll have a real hard time noticing it lest they let you. Even then you might just write it off as "weird" rather than autism.

how do you use her at higher levels, because i don't see her being useful at all. everyone figures out all my shit, where i place my shit (not that 1 hit sentries matter when found) and my TP only does 6 people or half that and gets blown up.
Maybe thats why she cant aim and needs a lock on weapon

AT a country fair there was a Buffoon who made all the people laugh by imitating the cries of various animals. He finished off by squeaking so like a pig that the spectators thought that he had a porker concealed about him.
But a Countryman who stood by said:
“Call that a pig’s squeak! Nothing like it. You give me till tomorrow and I will show you what it’s like.”
The audience laughed, but next day, sure enough, the Countryman appeared on the stage, and putting his head down squealed so hideously that the spectators hissed and threw stones at him to make him stop.
“You fools!” he cried, “see what you have been hissing,” and held up a little pig whose ear he had been pinching to make him utter the squeals.

The facility I work at is basically a daycare for developmentally disabled children and teens, includingg. those with Mid to low functioning Autism, Down Syndrom, and FAS. Meltdowns are frequent, as are "scatological incidents," and as the intern I get to help corral the kids and clean up the mess. Some of the severe autists are basically catatonic and need to be supervised 24/7. There are higher functioning ones who can communicate freely and act ay the level of an 11 year old, but even they have hygiene issues usually and are prone to tantrums if they become over stimulated. Hilariously, there's a hugbox in one of the back rooms, but we've never used it.
I love working with most of the kids though. We have a big computer room that we host a Minecraft server in and that usually keeps them behaved for most of the day.

Reminder that autism is genetic and breeding with anyone displaying autistic traits is destructive to your lineage.
If you yourself have autistic traits either
1. Don't breed
2. Find a fit, athletic girl who lacks these autistic traits and have the autism bred out of your bloodline.

Eh, I can see it.
Judging from the comic, she has some, if not autistic, then certainly OCD or some other disorder tendencies:
-Fixing a slightly tilted picture in the mayor cabinet for no reason
-Being unable to stay in the crowd because of "colors, chaos and stench"
-Remarking on how beautiful does a girl with a perfectly symmetrical face look and later lamenting the fact that she gets one half of it disfigured in the explosion
I mean it's not being shoved down your throat, but you can see it pretty clearly that Symmetra has some sort of disability. It's may not be autism, just some sort of OCD, evident by her attempts to make everything look "balanced"

reminds me of this john lennon quote
>Sheff: You disagree with Neil Young's lyric in Rust Never Sleeps: "It's better to burn out than to fade away..."
>Lennon: I hate it. It's better to fade away like an old soldier than to burn out. If he was talking about burning out like Sid Vicious, forget it. I don't appreciate the worship of dead Sid Vicious or of dead James Dean or dead John Wayne. It's the same thing. Making Sid Vicious a hero, Jim Morrison—it's garbage to me. I worship the people who survive—Gloria Swanson, Greta Garbo. They're saying John Wayne conquered cancer—he whipped it like a man. You know, I'm sorry that he died and all that—I'm sorry for his family—but he didn't whip cancer. It whipped him. I don't want Sean worshiping John Wayne or Johnny Rotten or Sid Vicious. What do they teach you? Nothing. Death. Sid Vicious died for what? So that we might rock? I mean, it's garbage you know. If Neil Young admires that sentiment so much, why doesn't he do it? Because he sure as hell faded away and came back many times, like all of us. No, thank you. I'll take the living and the healthy.

Autistic people aren't fucking capable of double entendre they can't fucking pick up social cues.

This is my typical day trying to correct him. And by correct I mean nicely tell t hem to stop doing something
>hey can you turn your music down
>REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>hey can you not do the dishes at 3 in the morning
>REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>hey can you answer the phone when I'm in the shower
>REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
queue him threatening to kill himself for 5 minutes
>>342989923
Artstyle is totally different, but same level of cringe even if Symmetra being indifferent to someone like Burch gushing over her autism or whatever she has is very much in character.
>>342992048
wtf?

>taking advice from a man who married Yoko Ono
>Muh spectrum!
Light spectrum. Vishkar elites consider their ability to manipulate light makes them superior to normal humans. Where does Symmetra fit in the grand scheme of the organization?
>Muh social awkwardness!
Lived a sheltered life since she was taken in by the Vishkar
>Muh disregarding the feelings of other people!
Non-architects are subhumans to the Vishkar
>>342992796
Why don't you just man up and make him disappear?
>>342992796
Let him do it
>>342992746
Some autists pick up on social cues too much. strange how this seems to be thought as a universal definer of autism, it isn't at all. some are perfectly competent at reading people.
and double entendres aren't social cues, it's a linguistic trick.
>>342991809
humans pretty inherently like to categorize things.
We're just at a point where we're inventing new things to categorize.

Do people seriously care about Overwatch lore and characters? The game has literally no connection to the lore, so why the fuck would anyone even bother making up theories?

Even if I might never stop hating him I'm still not going to let him kill himself. Though one day I think he might get into a fight with my father when I'm not around to stop him and he might actually do it
It's a ticking time bomb

That's not autism, that's being a faggot.
My younger cousin is diagnosed as autistic. Other than having an obsession with dumb shit like Steven Universe and memorizing commercials she's a normal person, if you ask her not to do something she'll comply if you explain why.
>>342992645
>you haven't met an autistic person either
poor motor skills and fine motor skills for one as well as their use of facial expressions. How someone's body moves is a good indicator of learning disabilities.
>>342991423
both are pretty good desu senpai desu
>>342988272
The whole "Symmetra is autistic" thing is worse than the "Phara is an amputee" meme
>>342989643
Do you know what a spectrum is? It's basically a range of things. There's the color spectrum, the sound spectrum, and there's the autism spectrum, just to name a few. Now, I haven't read the comic this quote is coming from, but "Where do I fit on the spectrum" seems to me it could mean anything from "how much of my body is human and how much is machine?" to "how deadly am I now that I'm part robot?"
Just because the word "spectrum" is used it does not automatically mean they're talking about the autism spectrum.
>>342992645
I'm not even trolling, ask an autistic person to try and catch a ball. It definitely has physical symptoms.
>>342993174
Like this dude said they also have weird facial expressions. Ask them to smile for a photo. You'll see
People want to believe other people are autistic because it brings them down to their level or brings them up to theirs. "If this person I like or has positive actual character traits is autistic then that will make autism more acceptable!" I know because I've done that shit myself regarding people like Billy Corgan and Terroja "The Amazing Atheist" Kincaid, clinging on to a few "telltale" signs under the hope that maybe, just maybe, autistic people can be cool but deep down I know it's not the case and I am represented solely by the Christian Weston Chandlers of the world.
>>342993143
>What is the autism spectrum
You do realize that autism has degrees of severity, right? Your cousin probably has mild autism.
>>342992613
Or maybe, it does about you, because you quoted the only post about a black monster cock.
>>342992270
I'm an aspie and part of it is having trouble with emotional severity (ie getting more angry/sad/etc over things than I should), but unlike that anon's brother I don't like to just use my aspergers as an excuse. I can't help it, but that's not an excuse for not trying to.
Of course, I don't know anon's brother, and I'm certainly not his doctor, so I can't judge whether he's truly incapable of controlling his outbursts or just doesn't try, but I certainly agree that he needs an anger management class.
>>342993143
Autism effects women less severely than men due to the effects of estrogen making them naturally more sociable.
>>342992701
>>342993143
There's different levels of autism
There's levels like you're cousin where they might have one or two quirks and then there's full blown autism like CWC and pamperchu
Most people fall into the middle
>character is gay/disabled/mentally disabled/fits my beliefs
This shit is why I bought a gun. Pretty soon they'll try to do this to living people.
>>342992796
You guys provably treated him to easily when he was young until it was past the point of no return because he doesnt know any better or some dumb shit, ever heard of assosiated stimuli, if ever time he threw a tantrum you back handed him when he was little he would learn not to do it, smarter animals like dogs and horses dont even need to be hit to be taught good behaviour but lets assume hes less intelligent then a horse.
>>342989643
>they need to make her more autistic
kek
>>342993143
That is autism, anon. There are varying degrees of autistic. My mother works at a place designed as a sort of club house for severely autistic people, retarded people, etc.
She always tells me about an autistic guy there who acts similar to what that guy describes
>randomly opens all the cupboards and takes cans out while screaming "EVERYTHING UNSITUATED PLEASE"
>takes shit out of boxes while screaming about them not being orderly
>>342991493
You sound autistic. Does that mean you have autism?
>>342993174
>I have met one person on the spectrum and assume that everyone has the same characteristics.
Autists are diverse. some have fine motor skills, some don't. most have bad posture, but most can be taught not to.
>>342993429
see above.
I'm not trying to say that being autistic isn't fucked up, but the range of issues and non-issues is so incredibly wide, these generalizations are just wrong.
>>342992680
Of course, she could just have certain preferences and irritations.
Like, just because someone has a preference for things being in order doesn't necessarily mean that they have a disorder. Some people are just very anal. They don't need a diagnosis.
>>342993441
>You do realize that autism has degrees of severity, right?
No it does not. Scientists do not agree on whether or not autism is a spectrum. This is why you can no longer get prescribed medication for high-functioning autism.
>>342991467
When people who aren't white get shiny things, they always get them in white.
And white people get things in black.
If you're a child, you go for red.
Don't know why, but that's how it works.

I do Not envy your position. But, you like your job?

As an autist myself, this is how I usually respond:
>hey can you turn your music down

>hey can you not do the dishes at 3 in the morning
>k
>hey can you answer the phone when I'm in the shower
>k

>all these medically trained specialists who went to college for 8+ years are just part of a pharmacutical plot to give our kids autism with vaccines and then make us pay for medicine to keep their autism controlled!
It's as bad as the people who claim shit like depression and anxiety "aren't real"
>>342993429
You seem to be full of shit, because you don't even know that high-functioning autists exist. One of the most notable examples on /v/ would be hatboy
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rD6xK3aPDWc
Scroll to 3:40 and you'll see how these autists function in society. Disability is still apparent through mannerisms, such as avoiding eye contact, slight movements and, usually, an object that would act like a safety blanket in case the person is feeling agitated (the ball he's squeezing), and through speech patterns.
>>342992882
You realize that Lennon was the crazy one in that relationship right?
>>342993665
Trust me he's had good parenting. He went to therapy when he was little, had a speech therapist, a separate aide he would be with like 8 hours a day that he was with until he was like 19.
Still an absolute douchebag with anger problems who will threaten to kill himself every time he gets into some kind of minor conflict.
>>342990961
>>342992190
Except being gay isn't debilitating unless other people impede your life because you're different than them, hence pride and taking a stand and not being scared of the norm.
My GAD makes me want to kill myself though, every day is a cycle of bad thoughts and people making me feel worse for feeling bad. It doesn't stop, I can't just suck it up, I can't function for a second without getting trapped in my head, pooling negativity. I want to die.
>>342993612
Characters definitely should be allowed to have mental illnesses or disabilities, if you have a genuine problem with that - you're a retard.. But shoehorning that shit into multiplayer-only games with 0 narrative makes literally no sense and is done for pandering reasons only.
>>342988272
Constantly wants symmetry going far enough to balance the camera. Works for an evil company blowing up kids homes and shit for the greater good because they sad she was pretty chill. Believes that order is everything to the point where destroying lives, freedom, and infrastructure for order is viewed as a necessity. Yup pretty autistic mate

It's like you can't make characters unique anymore without rustling some jimmies.
>>342991423
Much better. Blizzard needs to quit making ugly dark-skinned heroes.
>>342993878
It's a spectrum. The people who aren't affected as much will have good motor skills.
But my point still stands. The majority of autistic people are unathletic as hell
