As I've proved, it is best to be out for yourself. The old ways of grouping are largely gone now anyways. You really can't rely on others for help and support and thats why AS should be abolished. Its a condition that requires help. but none will come.

I doubt people with AS are likley to survive very long in some social-darwinist "mad max" style hellhole where everyones out for themselves to be honest.

AS is on many levels on intelligence. I could easily survive the end of civilisation. I have no qualms about resorting to killing to protect myself.

Fascism could be fun, before you suddenly are finding yourself in the inferior position. If you cannot organise a pack of humans under you, you will eventually be outnumbered.

If the first humans had been social-darwinist individualists, humanity would have been extinct quite quickly.

This must affect loads of people with AS. I am frightened, depressed and angry about it. How do we stop it?


"can you count backwards from 100?"

What would you like me to count, there are five spaces when I count backwards from 100.

"can you walk 200 metres?"
It depends what kind of meters they are, if their cemented into the pavement then it's going to be quite impossible to walk them as they only have one leg and it's cemented into the ground.

Questions answered.

Im divided on this, while I think those who purposely avoid work and get benefits for housing and living should be dealt with.
It may also be using all benefit seekers as an scapegoat on the CON-DEM Government's lack of resolve on fixing New Labour's issues.

Im on JSA which is £51.85 a week as Im Under 25, though I did a Volunteer Placement for the past 3 months to get some experience so its easier for me to get a job hopefully.

my father had a medical examination when he was conscripted into the britsh army. the test consisted of a) stick out your tongue b) look inside the ear-canal.

This is esentially the same thing, painted with several layers of gloss in a pitiful & half-hearted attempt to imbue some semblance of fairness.
