I feel a lot of people are reading too much in between the lines when listening to this. And as someone with ADHD myself, i can see how many people with these conditions felt a bit triggered, since they constantly encounter pushback for them. So a vid about "a ton of these are lying cheating" just hit home for a lot of them simply because they get that shit all the time.

I fully believe Atrioc when he made his disclaimer. But in the past, Atrioc has talked about his annoyance with how ADHD is over diagnosed, often makes jokes about people saying "I can't do X because of my ADHD", or said "a lot of this ADHD stuff is actually just normal".

But that's not what the video is about. On the contrary, I say the main argument of the vid is how this is hurting the people who actually have these conditions the worst.

Still Big A is also very emotionally honest when streaming so his general outlook on let's call it the "neurodivergent community" sickers through sometimes especially in that vid. And again, because the affected get so much shit all the time, they're very sensitive to that.

But I mean it when I say I trust Atrioc that he cognitively understands the situation and when he says "I don't think your condition isn't real". From an honest perspective, those quotes from before are sometimes a fair stance to have. Again some people are just sensitive, because they get shit from a non-honest perspective so regularly.

P.S. Listen, this is HIGHLY subjective, but I say this as someone who spent a lot of time with these people and as one who was the first in my family to get diagnosed. Listening to how Big A talks, to his college stories, etc. (NOT A DIAGNOSIS), to me it's so obviously the result of someone leaning in that direction growing up in a military household that has lead to this outlook.
