   And I can imagine some (thankfully, not all) of the new people here wondering "gee, you guys are so sensitive, what's wrong with that?"

   Well, here's the gist:

   #Neurodivergent and #ActuallyAutistic folks in here :neurodiversity: do not appreciate images with eye contact, and much less images of angry guys cursing at you and looking at your eyes (yes, there was a post like that in my timeline; I've also seen elsewhere images of people laughing and pointing at the camera - I was bullied in school, how do you think that makes me feel? ?)

   Even nice people smiling at you are still disturbing for neurodivergent folks.

   "But if that's so disturbing, why didn't they complain before?"

   And the answer to that is, YES, THEY HAVE, and they were harassed TO HELL.

   So the reason why you never heard of people complaining about eye-contact images in twitter is because, as most neurodivergent folk, we've learned that raising our voice in front of hundreds or thousands of bullies is not going to result in anything good.

   So you know what happened to these neurodivergent folks who were pushed away from twitter?

   We moved to somewhere else. And that somewhere else is HERE.

   Would you kindly consider that? Thanks in advance.
