Its been building up for a while. Its really really stressful. I think it's basically latent xenophobia and also just bigotry and prejudice against me being a bit poor. - randomly ghosted repeatedly in different things that should be inclusive and easy like volunteering at a food bank or community a...

I am not a therapist. You seem to be talking about how you believe nothing is real. -this is not a delusion, reality is a mental construct. You can choose whether you act in a world that is "real" or not. Honestly I don't know what the difference would be. You for sure will hurt yourself i...

Yeah in my area the cops are really hit and miss. I called them for a literal street fight (like people on the ground, multiple punches) and they did nothing, not even a statement. Some of them I know are corrupt. I know a busker who has a learning disability, he deliberately avoids getting governme...

What are the laws about it in Germany? In the UK it's perfectly legal to photograph or film anybody in a public place. Some people hate it. I was once covering a county show for a local news site and one of the exhibitors there got furious with me for photographing them, saying it was against the l...

A guy walked by me and put his phone in my face. I assume he was filming me? What the f**k!? I asked. He started to run away. I wanted to know what he was doing so I followed. He went into a store and started shouting at everyone to call the police, then he sort of stood there. I stood my distance, ...

With the rise of the far right globally, I would prefer you didn't research this, regardless of what truth there may be. They will label us as "cavemen" and have as removed from the gene pool. If you do continue, brand it differently, just refer to genetic sequences and don't say Neanderth...

I think, given that some of the inherent problems caused by autism reduce our ability to be socially influential that it's unlikely we as a group are going to find ourselves socially dominant. I mean, it's not impossible though. History has a lot of examples of pretty weird social outcasts becoming...

If all you're after is to be the one doing the oppressing you don't have anything serious to offer. Yeah that's a fair if pretty vacuous statement that I mostly agree with. Look I feel like I have dug myself into a hole here, I didn't mean that either. All I was saying was that we could use a more ...

Oh sure...autistics should just do like the Spanish Conquistadors and conquer and enslave all NTs because NTs all live in the Stone Age and dont yet have muzzle loading muskets. Lol! Baha, exactly! So, this isn't what one might describe as a serious thought? Only in the sense of cosplay. Please don...

Exactly, you can't simply say minority = powerless.

Those guys also didn't start out that way.
Through clever strategizing Autistics can become a respected powerful force.

Sometimes I hear the argument "NTs are in the majority, so we have to play by their rules, we are in their world". However history is full of examples of small groups that dominate larger ones. For example, the East India company and India, the Spanish and latin america.... Just saying... ...

Just sort of thinking out loud here, and as I go I realise I was wrong, but I will write some ideas out anyways. Firstly the way I operate successfully in the past is to have a set goal, quickly learn related theory, design a solution, implement the solution. I don't distinguish between any one fiel...

I have held grudges against the people who bullied me during my childhood and teen years.  By sheer coincidence, all of those people have either died, gone to prison, become homeless, or contracted some form of dementia. Bahaha I appreciate your vindictiveness sometimes fnord, hilariously dark. Vin...
