I try to update you on politics regarding my own country, which is Italy.
Here autistic people are considered "ret*d" by the majority of the NTs. Only experts of mental health and some clever people understand that being autistic doesn't mean being "ret*d".
If I go around (and people in my city know I'm autistic) they just say when I do something weird/don't reply/don't act how a normal person is supposed to act "Oh don't worry, he's just autistic" and they laugh their ass off.
Regarding politics, Movement 5 stars (which is one of the leading parties here in Italy) has its leader Giuseppe Grillo stating :" everyone nowaday says that he/she is asperger, all these asperger came out of nowhere right now and they supposedly are big philosofers/mathematicians."
So basically I would say to sum it up, in Italy we are considered some kind of "ret*d" people to be mocked and ignored. Nobody even tries to befriend you because being autistic means that on Instagram and other social media you would be discriminated by having such a "ret*d" friend.
This is personally how I feel about being autistic in Italy and how the politics depicts it at the moment.
Pure BS and anger by my side.
That all sucks big time! My sympathies.
But it sounds like the human race. Imp-like creatures with fragile bodies compared to rest of animals who probably should and known for manipulation and condemnation in the cruelest fashion possible to any deviations from average and most common human form (neurotypical). I have fantasies of the day when humans go extinct. Hopefully, it's done in the most visceral and cruel way imaginable.
