Thank you for explaining. I didn't mean to suggest that Facilitated communication is like reading horoscopes. I assumed that the movie was some kind of heartwarming film that people (women!) watch to feel good. That's what I'd assume first and foremost, not that the person watching it is aware of the how the source material was created and embraces that.
I've seen people become annoyed when someone they admire does something boring, like a brilliant scientist who also collects hand-bags or likes to go to football matches, because they seem to envision them as brilliant scientists 24/7 without a life outside of being brilliant (and probably communicating only in deep profound statements, even when they're at the checkout in the cafeteria and the cashier is rolling their eyes because they're holding up the queue).
I don't share your approach to people and don't understand it at all, but I'm aware that's on me, not you. I guess I'm just very good at compartmentalizing, I can't think of a single person where I'd be disappointed if they came out as liking pop-music or strongly believing in homeopathy, flat-earth, or socialism. I'm a fan of some people, but it's narrowly confined to their work in some area, e.g. I might love someone's books or music, but that wouldn't translate into me caring about their political views.
