No, the fact that one autistic person acts like this does not mean that all autistic person acts like this. However, it is a common enough trait among enough autistic people and being able to navigate social interactions with autistic people is a skill neurotypical people should learn.

But that's been the struggle of neurodivergent people from the start, the desire for others to dismiss anything that may make them slightly uncomfortable or inconvenienced.
