AIBU to think Zach Polanski is targeting neurodiverse voters online?

I’ve name changed for this as I’ve been commenting on social media but AIBU to think that Zach, the cultish leader of the Greens is targeting the neurodiverse community?

I’ve seen previously non- political channels which have been great for the neurodiverse community (eg Rory) suddenly swamping their SM with how great the Green Party is, Reddit ND feeds are awash with how terrible life will be - “ petrified/horrified/can’t stop crying/might as well die” posts if anyone but the saviour Zach gets in. It’s like they’ve been brainwashed. It’s like the targeting of the autism community by the TRAs all over again!

its like a cult! The man has no morals and is playing the ND community - it seems every area I now visit in the community has Zach Polanski all over it!

Eh? I don't see how this is different to any other politician garnering votes where they may. As for 'cultish' and 'no morals' -this feels like a reach, especially when you're not backing your opinion up with anything to support it. I'm not a Green Party member, but I disagree with you anyway.

Isn't that the point in elections and what gives ypu right to assume the 'ND community' as you put it cant think for themselves?

I mean YANBU to think the Greens are targeting potential voters online, but so is every other party. There's an election coming up.

It’s also a bit insulting to say the ‘ND community’ can be played.

Like they’re all one person with no minds of their own.

Maybe the Greens just appeal to neurodiverse people more than other parties? Maybe they are seen as more inclusive in general?

Why is that cultish?

I don’t really see the problem to be honest.

Politicians/political parties have always targeted certain communities.
