1. We are neither cats nor dogs; we are people. 2. Masking seems to work in most cases -- most people seem to be unable to tell the difference. 3. In those cases where masking fails, the truth is often mis-identified. 4. Even when NTs are not masking, their truth can also be mis-identified. 5. Prof...

I have to agree with Fnord on this one. The world is not going to change for us. ASD individuals make up between 1 and 2% of the population. That isn't much. Individuals have a limited information processing ability (I am a Cognitive Psychologist). So when in social situations they don't have the r...

. . . the world can and should change in order to cater to spergs. . . You seem to have forgotten that "The World" is not one homogeneous mass.  It is instead over 8,000,000,000 individuals, the majority of whom are neuro-normative. The best to be hoped for is an informed public; but this...

You seem to have forgotten that "The World" is not one homogeneous mass.  It is instead over 8,000,000,000 individuals, the majority of whom are neuro-normative. Which informs why talking about wishing humanity wasn't around is pointless. If you don't "fit-in" then social psycho...

You seem to have forgotten that "The World" is not one homogeneous mass.  It is instead over 8,000,000,000 individuals, the majority of whom are neuro-normative. We are close to the 8 billion mark. I do wonder when we will reach a point in which the population will be unsustainable. Anyho...

It is easy to assign blame. It is much more difficult to apply a valid solution -- but solutions exist, if people are able and willing to put forth the effort. Truth is, Fnord is right about this with his theme. I actually agree with him but not for the reasons he thinks. Valid solutions indeed do ...

What programs are in place exactly?

Where are they exactly Fnord?

Besides Voc Rehab which is a BS program that doesn't work, where are these programs?

I want to ask you all something. If Nikolas Cruz was naturally evil or naturally a bad seed then can something that is naturally evil or a bad seed choose to be anything else other then evil or a bad seed? I've been thinking about the nature of evil and free will and I'm wondering if punishment in o...

I agree, there are lots of jobs that are fascinating for autists but come with their overwhelming challenges, pressure, and necessary client interactions. Beware Aspies! Have you at least read the responses you got? :scratch: It happens that we are dozens of adult Aspies, each with their own experi...

Unless you don't know the difference between right and wrong and there are circumstances in which this is true then I think choice is a heavy factor in what actions a person will take. I was made fun of and treated like s**t when I was younger. I couldn't get a job in I.T out of college and I felt l...

I've been watching some youtube videos about the Trial and Sentencing of Nikolas Cruz but this guy murdered 17 people and f*****g enjoyed it. I'm autistic. I have mental and emotional problems. I feel like society has slighted me and is s**t but it is wrong to murder people like he did. And, on top ...

Objectivists see the inherent value of all individuals. It is in an objectivist’s self-interest to invest in the potential of other people, including those who have fallen on hard times but willing to make themselves valuable. I actually agree with you on this one. I do have what others may conside...

There is a problem with developing any form of "Moral Law": exceptions. • "Do Not Murder"?  What about those who kill in self-defense? • "Do Not Steal"?  What about those who have no other means to provide food or medicine for themselves? • "Do Not Lie"?  Wha...

I treat people with respect regardless of their age, unless of course they don’t deserve respect. I will be violent in self-defence if my life or that of a loved one is threatened physically.
