   @stylo_the_unicorn Autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder, 'being autistic' means either having said disorder, or displaying behavior common or stereotypical of autism in a given situation. But I feel like there's more to what you're asking, and I'm too autistic to properly interpret it.

     @MakBerberovic the question was kind of what you said. But I still think that 'being autistic' means not a person with autism, which is a rare disorder.

     I think people don't want to talk, and then they call themselves 'being autistic'. Which is ok, but I have to understand if being autistic means being a diagnosed authist.

     @stylo_the_unicorn So yeah in english you can say 'being [adjective]' as an alternative to 'behaving [adverb]'.

     So 'being austistic' can be intrepreted as 'behaving autistically' and a person does not have to have autism for that to make sense.
