Asperger's and Being Considered "Disabled"
BS....there are still issues with communication I would have regardless of if NTs overall where more accepting. Also how is it a discrimination free society if autistics would by default have greater opportunities than neurotypicals? Also I hate to break it to you but not all of us have some great talent going for us or super genius brains so stop categorizing us all as a bunch of superior beings.
You mean you can't move objects with your mind and calculate Pi out to 200 digits in your head? Sweetleaf, what is wrong with you?!
I don't know man...I guess I didn't come with a brain calculator.
the technical term for that is delayed echolalia

I am familiar with the term savant, not sure what an idiot savant is...but not sure it's something I'd want to be.

Even today most of my bosses regard me as an idiot and they consider me borderline mentally ret*d and a slow learner who is not worth the extensive time it takes to train me. However a few bosses dare to recognize my savant skills but that is used against me because that means that I dare to think that I am better than other people.
Someone needs to look up the definition of "spectrum" as in spectrum disorder.
Ah, but you forget. Lower-functioning neurotypicals aren't neurotypical, and higher-functioning autistics aren't autistic.
At least by their logic.
A nuerotypical can be considered lower functioning than a highly gifted autistic. Even higher functioning autistics are considered borderline ret*ds by most of society including the medical establishment. An autistic may be a slower learner which is why autistics are considered ret*ds but the depth of the learning is much less superficial.
