Matt Walsh has doubled down on his claims that neurodivergence isn't real. He said that it is a "ridiculous term" invented by the left and activists, adding that it has become a trend.On November 3, the political commentator and podcaster shared a video on his show, The Matt Walsh Show, across his social media channels. In the almost 40-minute video, he spoke at length about neurodivergence, claiming that the left has invented it. He claimed that it was not a real thing.Following the video, the Americans for Autism Advocacy (AFAA) demanded an apology from Walsh. They wrote in a statement:“Matt Walsh’s remarks on neurodivergence carry no credibility and must not be taken seriously. His derogatory and uninformed statements about neurodivergent Americans are entirely false and serve only to foster division." "Regardless of political or ideological stance, no public media figure should resort to harmful, derogatory language directed at any group of Americans. Such behavior is completely unacceptable. Americans for Autism Advocacy urges Daily Wire President Mike Richards to require Mr. Walsh to retract his statement and issue a full public apology," they added.Walsh responded to this statement on X (formerly Twitter) on Tuesday, and wrote:"I’m sorry that I said neurodivergence isn’t real. I meant to say more specifically that it’s an incoherent, ridiculous term invented by activists 45 seconds ago and I lose respect for anyone who uses it. Also, it isn’t real."The title of Walsh's original video called neurodivergence "an insanely popular trend."Also Read: "Atrociously bad": Matt Walsh reacts to post claiming AI writing imitates "top 5% of humans"More from Matt Walsh's claims about neurodivergenceAm I Racist? Movie Premiere - Source: GettyIn his video about neurodivergence, Walsh spoke about its impact on politics and claimed that it isn't real. He raised questions about what constitutes neurodivergence, claiming that many influencers on TikTok seem to be neurodivergent.He said:"We're going to talk about a fictional made-up term that's very fashionable lately. And that term is Neurodivergence. In fact, neurodivergence is a current event, as it turns out, and it's linked very closely to what we're watching unfold politically in our country and across the entire Western world. It's more than just a trendy buzzword.""In case you're not familiar with neurodivergence, what's happened is that the left has become so weird and erratic that they invented a new word to describe it. And it's catching on. And by one estimate, neurodiversity mentions in US job postings have nearly tripled in recent years," he added.He then shared a few clips of Canadian doctors discussing and explaining the definition of neurodivergence. Matt Walsh, however, slammed the explanations and said:"The truth is that neurodivergent is the latest in a long train of euphemisms that started with r*tarded and became slow and then became autistic and then became mentally challenged and then handicapped and then handicapable and then autistic again. And then finally it landed on neurodivergent."The podcaster said it took "several different cycles of inclusivity" to arrive at the term 'neurodivergent'. He further labeled it a "fake condition" and said that it is a combination of "introversion and narcissism".Also Read: "There need to be more deportations": Matt Walsh reacts after Trump claims his deportation policy was "too tough" post-midterm results
