I don’t know if someone saying this is bad
I once heard someone say “oh, she has a little bit of autism” when talking about someone. I admit, even though I myself am diagnosed, I don’t know much about autism, so I don’t know if saying that is correct, because either someone has autism or they don’t, right? I am not sure, so I am asking

It's not acceptable at all for people to say 💚
We never know what other people's lives are like unless we walk in their shoes and that's why my motto is, if I have nothing good to say, I say nothing, nice to meet you also and I hope you are having a good day 🥰

I think this may be very uninformed and something someone should not say.
I would say this may be due to the fact that autism is measured on a spectrum.
One diagnosis does not match every other. Just like many other conditions.
Autistic girl here. <3
Something better to say would be, "I think she might be autistic", vs "She has a little bit of autism". Saying she has a little bit of autism is like saying she's a little bit human lol! Either you are or you aren't.
