So i took that title literally O.o
Also, body language of this guy practically radiates autism. So much i have doubt the teacher thing was even real and its just a Bully trying to see how he’d react.

I think that sadly, they're a teacher, and a bully
how does his body language radiate autism?
The flappy fingers when he's initially challenged are a dead giveaway.
I cant really put my finger on specifics but from experience i have a very high success ratio in recognizing a fellow neurodivergent within the first seconds of meeting someone.
I keep the info for my self at first of course but my initial feeling is often validated over time as those are the people who don’t judge me for my own traits, become a social ally and eventually open up and confirm it.
I don't think teachers working with autistic children are qualified enough to recognize autistic adults. Because like everything in life you need to deal with it in the adulthood so you learn to hide it.
Although I am not 100% sure if I am autistic, so take my words with a grain of salt.
As a random internet person, I can certifiably say you are 100% Autistic
That audience member has just shown us a great example of selection bias. Along the same lines, a study found that 100% of respondents were willing to answer a survey, which I'm totally sure generalized to all people /s.
I wasn't diagnosed until I was nearly 40 (😒😒😒). Teachers don't know what they're not taught.
Same, and both of my parents were teachers, at least one of whom is also autistic.
I had the teachers/care givers who would give bad advise and had no idea how to help. It wasn't until later that I learned about stimming.
We need to educate the general public
Oof that was painful! He handled it well though.
