by this?

When it comes to "sins of the system," however, teaching is virtually impossible. As Grandin herself points out, these rules are illogical -- and absolutely circumstantial. They require an extraordinary knowledge of human behavior, and a subtle understanding of many different cultures. And, as Grandin suggest, agony columnists would be out of a job if most neurotypical people really grasped these social norms.


i read this in an excerpt review of Temple Grandins' new book. on social rules.

any guesses?

NTs don't obey their own rules. As one could have expected, of course. For example: Most politicians and people of the system of "justice" are more or less criminals, because they can. A cop, prosecutor or judge being a criminal is of course an absolute contradiction, but a fact.

The guy who killed the Swedish foreign minister Anna Lindh was psychically disturbed. According to Swedish law, a psychically disturbed person can't get jail for his crimes, only mental care. But as she was a very important person, they convicted him to lifetime in jail anyway. That makes the judges in the Swedish Supreme Court criminals themselves. Typical "sin of the system". The crime they committed is called "breach of duty" and can render 6 years in jail. For a bureacrat on a pretty low level in the system, that would have been the punishment for breaking the law on his duty. But to a Supreme Court judge nothing happens at all. Sin of the system. Gross one. Disguisting.

Most NTs do not grasp social norms, it's automatic for them. We have to think about it, and to us it sometimes looks absurd.

In comparison, a 5 year old girl was killed in the province Värmland on the very same day, in the very same way, stabbed with a knife, by a psycho, and, worst of all: He got the impulse to do it when he heard about the stabbing of the foreign minister. But this guy got mental care, because the girl was just an ordinary Swedish citizen.

I puke on NT's and their hypocracy. I puke on the government and on "justice".

NT "justice": Killing one of the most powerful women in Europe renders lifetime in prison. Killing a 5 year old girl under exactly the same circumstances (with a knife, without knowing the person, being mentally disturbed) renders mental care. Oh, how fair, how socially skilful!

*PUKING*

Very true indeed. I have a list on my bedroom wall of social "rules" that I have to follow and I need to read it every morning.

I like the absurd Legislation that keeps getting signed by El Presidente Bushito but never mentioned by the press. He recently signed a bill that negates habeus corpus. That means you can be accused of being a terrorist, taken away, and the person who accused you doesn't have to appear in court (! !! !!???) We're back to the Salem Witch Trials, only terrorists this time.

He's violating the 4th and 5th Amendments of the US Constitution and no one notices it... :roll:
