I mean, Ian literally has said in interviews he used "social anxiety" as a strategy in BB14.
I don't think this is an unfair statement on her part when he's used mental health issues before to advance himself.
The way Dani approached the situation was fair, and appropriate considering her circumstances. She went to 1 person she trusted, and asked if they felt the same way about it. This is a social game, and if someone can use an anxiety disability to garner sympathy, damn right I would do that. Damn right I would use my autism as a connection to other neurodiverse people.
Now, had Daniele in the middle of a nomination ceremony said "I'm nominating you Ian because I feel like you're using your disability as a strategy.", or if she called him out in public in any way shape or form, THAT would be highly inappropriate.

I mean Paul028 what is wrong there?
I have two brother's with autism and the oldest one, is very intellectual and frankly, uses his autism as a major disadvantage because people told him he can't do anything--I have told him otherwise, my mom has talked with him, but uses it.
She is just stating that knowing about his autism--kinda ironically this season, where he already talked to Nicole.F about how the winners are gonna struggle, does seem like it can be strategy.
She didn't say anything offensive or rude about him, but stated a simple observation she noticed.
