An overly simplistic deduction between ADHD and ASD;

Quote:
ADHD minus Executive Dysfunction is just personality.
That one cannot exist without the other.

Autism minus Executive Dysfunction is still Autism.
Because one can still exist without the other.


I'm aware some people here will be mad. :D

I wish someone could explain to me in simple terms what ableism means because I just don't get it

Ableism is just like racism, except, instead of people of colour typically being the targets of racism, it is people with mental or physical disabilities who are the targets of ableism.

Ableism is effectively a form of discrimination and prejudice against disabled folk as a group or as an individual disabled person.

No seriously I thought it was about able people expecting disable people to just get on with it as if they have no disabilities

I always use the word disablist for discrimination against disabled people

What you describe would be an example of ableism, but not the only thing included under the term.

There exists, an endless amount of things to learn, if you are open and willing to learn such information.

I mean, unless you have a learning disability or something, in which case you might face barriers to learning.

(I don't mean you, that was just a general comment).
