I would largely agree with what you said. I have fairly strong ADHD as well. My interpretation is largely around failure cases. People with ASD who can't mask it tend to fail in "abnormal" ways; i.e. ways that neurotypical people don't. Those "abnormal" failures are something neurotypical people can't "put themselves in the shoes" of. That unfamiliarity leads to either discrimination or empathy, depending on the person/situation/etc. ADHD tends to fail in "normal" ways; i.e. ways that neurotypical people do fail. Most problems associated with ADHD are something that neurotypical people might also do, but far less frequently than someone with ADHD. E.g. forgetting an appointment is "normal", forgetting 5 in a row is not. That familiarity allows people to feel like they can "put themselves in the shoes" of someone with ADHD. They sometimes think those problems can be solved the same way a neurotypical person might, and think the person with ADHD is simply refusing those solutions. That leads to more discrimination or ill will; because the problems are "normal", the person with ADHD is judged by "normal" standards. I don't think it's isolated to ADHD, either. Any mental health disorder that has "normal" failure cases is prone to that effect. People with depression that can't get themselves out of bed are often judged by "normal" standards, because neurotypical people sometimes don't want to get out of bed. People with social anxiety get judged by "normal" standards because not wanting to socialize sometimes is a fairly "normal" problem.
