Exactly, alleging that being a geek is just some thing we've been brainwashed into by the media is idiotic

Geeks aren't necessarily neurodivergent. In fact a lot of very neurotypical people are geeks, they're just geeks about things that are socially acceptable. How many sports bros get obsessed with the minutiae of their sports teams and play fantasy football and all that shit? They even buy jerseys so they can LARP as their favorite player. Being "geek" versus "normal" isn't about the mode of interaction with something, it's about the value society has attached to the thing people are interacting with.

Being into comics isn't the most socially unacceptable thing either. But you are reading something, out of a page, even if it's mostly images, so a dedicated meathead might see that as "weird".

Geeks are neurodivergent when people want to shit on geeks. Geeks suddenly aren't neurodivergent when people are confronted about the stereotypes and slurs they drop. You tell me the neckbeard stereotype isn't neurodivergent coded.
