Wait you think Wednesday is supposed to be neuro fucking divergent? The Addams family are macabre. They enjoy inflicting pain on themselves and others. They're obviously creepy and quirky. They're bizarre. They're morbid. They're antiheroes, maybe. They could even be argued to be sociopathic, sadistic, cruel, or just mean. But that's their entire shtick, you absolute massive twat. They're an antithesis of a typically-portrayed family, the one with the white picket fence and the golden lab. What they are not, nor has anyone involved with their creation ever claimed they were, is neurodivergent.

But sure, just randomly make something unrelated to you completely about you, cause that screams neurodivergent, not narcissism.

Technically psychopathy is a form of neurodivergentcy

You've just described a lot of autistic people though. And specifically in this era where characters are given an extra dash of "autistic-coded writing" yeah thats the popular consensus is that Wednesday represents an autistic character.
