The neurtypical urge to agree what the autist is saying is correct, but refuses to accept it or act on it because they don't like the way they are being told about it, then to in the end blame the autist when the predicted catastrophe comes because 'you didn't try hard enough to convince me'

It has brought be very close to being arrested more than once and I'm sure I'll be in jail over this in the fullness of time.
