The comparison they are making is that there was a stage where all of a sudden a bunch of people were claiming to de-transition and people believe it was a kind of co-ordinated thing to “prove” that transgender was just some kind of fad. OL is saying now that they are doing a similar thing with autistic people going back on their diagnosis and that the strings are being pulled by those who want to “prove” that autism is being over-diagnosed.
Essentially, it’s the “strategy” being used that’s comparable. It’s designed with an agenda.
Because trans people’s brains are literally wired to be the gender they transition into, not the body they’re born in.
Every transgender person I know, including the one I’m married to, knew from a very young age their brain didn’t match their body.
Finding out and accepting you’re trans is the diagnosis.
Cool. I dont get what this post is saying as it relates to autism or trans people.
I dont get how what you are saying ties to the post.

Ok cool thanks I can see that. Diagnosis can change though, thats refinement and research a work. The autism scare mongering is ridiculous
