Has anyone actually managed to go through that site? The whole thing is clearly intended as a joke and everyone is being attacked, not just Aspies. I just found an article on there about Jewish people which was unbelievable. It's not just us that's being targeted. We shouldn't be taking that article so seriously. Save your time and energy. You have to have a thick skin in life otherwise you'll go through too much pain, unfortunately it took me too long to realize that.

However, saying that, I too can't say I approve of all these people who self-diagnose, at least those who do nothing with their conclusions like getting a professional DX ASAP. It's becoming far too fashionable in some circles to claim having AS. For example, the minute I was diagnosed a little over 2 years ago, my very obviously NT (and slightly insane) mother concluded she had to have AS too. She was determined to "join the club" as it were. I don't think those kinds of self-DX are helpful to us. Just my 2 cents.


Well it really does not matter much. What other people think they have has little effect on my life and I could care less about some person out there that may have wrongly dx themselves or who may
have and offical AS DX. Dx is useless because their is no treatment.
Maybe if someone lives in a socialist brotherhood they may get benfits but the average adult in the US has no reason to get an DX.



Sorry to hear that, can you not get SSI (is that the correct term?)?
It's not so bad here, you can qualify for a lot of assistance from social security and get things like CBT from psychologists. It's definately been beneficial for me to get the diagnosis.
I guess the downside of that is that taxes are much higher in Europe.

good point about having a thick skin. though i generally hate jokes of any kind that are hateful to anyone (so i disagree with the entire site).

It's amazing that they could get away with so much controversy. In this country you can barely express an opinion anymore without running the risk of going to jail for "incitement".

Hmm. So the site basically bashes every subculture known to man to get where? Aspies, Jews and furries did nothing wrong to get on that site. It's the f*****g media that cooks up these lies and spoonfeeds them to the public so they're brainwashed to hate minorities like these. Just goes to show you that the world is full of ignorant degenerates at the bottom of the food chain.

I'm not really that bothered. Actually, I'm more bothered about the lack of stuff on neurotypical. One of us should go on there and make an article about neurotypicals. And it's more about the fadders, as it says.

there is a huge number of articles that make fun of neurotypicals, its just that they don't employ that term, preferring instead nationalities, race, religion, etc.

Yeah, but what about Black Aspies? Mexican Aspies? Jewish Aspies? Wiccan Aspies? If they make fun of a whole race or religeon, they take EVERYONE into account, you know.
