          Maybe anautistic because autistic starts with a vowel. Or using the same logic with abnormal, we could say abautistic.

        100% it’s just an attempt to pathologize being “normal”, the same way some people use “neurodivergent” to mean that suffering from autism, ADHD, or other whatever is just a difference of opinion rather than a life-altering condition.

          Allistic and neueotypical don’t mean the same. You can be allistic and still be neurodivergent.

            I agree. My comment was more a humorous play with words trying to be paradoxical.
