expressing struggles with a common disorder is not normalizing the disorder. this is a mean comment.

It's not about this comic, it's about the pervasive rappresentation of these struggles as cute quirks instead of crippling issues stemming from a dysfuntional society that needs to be changed.

That's in a never ending amount of webcomics.

Should I also call them out as being low hanging fruits as well?

“it’s not about this comic” responds to this comic

listen i agree with some of your goals but you can understand my confusion at you using mean language under a post you deem acceptable, no?

I'm sure you will master connecting a thing to a related concept in a matter of weeks.

you made a hurtful comment. just explaining your downvotes. :)

Thanks, I'm aware of how this may sound to the people struggling in that way. I sympatize with their struggle, I'm part of it more often than not.

I'd like it to not be the case and I don't think it's completely healthy to celebrate it.

It's a shame the world is not kind, doesn't care and downvotes mean nothing
