I'm sorry you feel hated for being different....but I don't think that people hate you for that reason. I don't think people hate you at all.
Maybe someone should have told that to the people at school who bullied me every day, non stop, until I snapped. Because they sure as hell picked on me for being different, and I pay for it every day surpressing my temper, and going to counselling. And I know I winge about this a lot - but hey, I'm bitter. Ruined the best years of my dam* life.
I have been wondering...
If we could come to realize that we all have a shared interest and quit acting from self pity, feeling that the worst is yet to come, and become one mind and focus on something realistic, we might learn that, the best may still ahead of us.
I have seen alot of threads about the bullying. I have noticed alot of people using the bullying that they endured as an excuse.
forget about a cure
When i look around and see the accomplishments that other minority (outcast) type groups have made, i am encouraged. The first thing that happens is that they finally, en masse, agree that enough is enough. It is time to be included in the process of government and see to it that our rights are represented. And they join together as a single voice, making positive steps towards their goals.
this thread is a good example; in one camp their are the people who have been bullied and also are ashamed of being aspie (common denominator of ashamed was bullying). The other camp have all kinds who are proud of themselves, irrespective of their shortcomings, including, people who were bullied.
If we could share one voice (stop the stupid bickering, and whining) and move towards recognition as a minority at a disadvantage, i think one aspect in particular would be automattically solved. THE BULLYING.
Think about it;
Bunch of white guys beat up a black guy; Hate crime
Straights beating up a gay; Hate crime
NT high school Punks beating up an AS; hate crime
hate crimes carry way more penalties under the law than similar violations that aren't considered hate crimes.
Schools would be forced to monitor these situations more carefully, out of fear of allowing a condussive environment for hate crimes; and faer of lawsuits.
Just wondering any thoughts.
Obviously arguing and showing reason isn't enough.
