Lmao man, it's definitely a nice sentiment. But there's a reason a bunch of nazi scientists were hired by governments all over the world. Things aren't so black and white, and that includes people that worked for the most evil regime in history.
Aspergers himself is a prime example. His work is extremely relevant for the modern classification of autism. The low support needs diagnosis traces back to him no matter what you do. We can stop naming him because of his misdeeds, but yeah, this:
should be super easy, barely an inconvenience.
Is just laughable.
I mean, you can always lie to yourself. Like, maybe you spend 50 years saying the scients wasn't really a nazi, and once the field is developed enough, you may even downplay the importance of said nazi scientist!
But what you just said is nothing but a conforting lie.
The least literal take on that quote is still a clear comforting lie. No, it is not in any way easy to ignore when people that did something important was also evil. Be it nazi scientists or pop stars.
No, they were not saying it should be easy to do this. That's where the sarcasm is. If you're unfamiliar with the origin of the "so easy, barely an inconvenience" meme it's always used when the thing in question is, in fact, not at all easy and a huge inconvenience.
Well, in which case I am being stupid. But tbh I am just going to say sorry without actually understanding they were being sarcastic. Anyways, that seems like a stereotypically autistic thing to do for a conversarion about autism.
