Good idea. Coincidentally I had a fantasy about a technocratic island dictatorship of Aspergia. With mechas. And a leader like Mr. House from the Fallout New Vegas.

We would need neurotypicals though. They can function well in customer service and other social labor, while the autistics are in the academia, accounting and other white collar jobs.

I reported it for hate speech against a disability because that was the closest match for reasons. Facebook replied that they saw nothing wrong with it.

Now on the other hand, badmouth the POTUS, and whoaaa, take it down immediately!

Don't see how it has anything to do with autism. Just some kids wasting away their time trolling.

It would appear that the Facebook page is gone! I guess people reporting it did work. Though I bet there will be a new one (probably by the same people) soon. Oh well...

I'm glad it's gone now. It was a classic case of people with the idea that goes like : "Oh! Autism! People have been raising so much awareness in our society! I'm sick of hearing it!". Then, they go and attempt to troll thinking they're so high and mighty by not conforming helping autistic people. Seen it happen before. Sickening. Sickening indeed. Don't deserve to live. :evil:

Glad it was removed. Got a message saying, they reviewed it per my request, and decided it was hate speech. Glad I was wrong about FB.

That's good. All of the stuff I reported came back as "did not find hate speech" and yesterday it was changed to "since it violated our Community Standards, we removed it." Glad it's gone though, even if it was just a troll looking for attention, it could have proved harmful to an already bad stereotype of autistic individuals.

Yeah I'm glad its gone too. They may have been idiotic teenage trolls, posting sick attempts at humour. But these sort of things attract much scarier people who are not just messing around for 'laughs'. And anything like this can implant the seeds of negative thought in the less intelligent members of society.
