This is why autism is so hard to define and why objective information about it is so hard to find.
groups like “autism speaks” are full of bullshitters that constantly talk about how horrible autism is and how it destroys families.
Narcissism destroys families, not autism.
Wanna know something else that pisses me off? Most autism specialists don’t listen. They’ll sit there looking at you talk, but they’ll only take in about 10% of what you say and then they’ll respond to something you never said.
the internet archive is a very useful tool for countering the “official story” whenever the powers that be are lying.
If you’re able, I hope you donate to the internet archive. There’s a lot of horrible people from all over youtube that like to erase their old videos to help control their own narrative.
Old movies didn’t have nearly as much political virtue signaling that new movies have.
New movies have a “diversity quota” where they literally put a numbers on the cast members and production crew members based on their race, gender and so on. They try to quantify how diverse things are.
The worst of it happens in the video game industry. Microtransactions and invasive monetization? Started in the video game industry. Locking pre-installed features behind a paywall? Started in the video game industry. Releasing shit before it’s ready to run as intended? Started in the video game industry.
I don’t know why these discussion are often met with “if you’re not ready to lose your car you’re the problem” narrative.
I hate that argument. I can’t use public transit and most cities are too big to be walkable.
I also hate the idea of walkable cities, which is a dog-whistle-word for 15-minute cities, full of surveillance and all kinds of other bullshit, like not being able to go back the way you came and having to walk all around the entire town to go back home.
I can’t use public transit. And I don’t want to live in a 15-minute city either. I like my big rural town with tons of free space between every home. 1000 regular people driving cars isn’t even 10% of one billionaire flying in a private jet once.
Have you ever noticed how all these environmental regulations only affect us? Or how we’re the only ones looked at as being the ones who need to “cut back” on things WE like?
But billionaires and millionaires are never expected to change anything THEY do to help the environment.
I’ve also noticed that climate change isn’t nearly as bad as authoritarian, anti-free-speech assholes like Al Gore says it is. Al Gore said there wouldn’t be any ice in the polar regions by 2013, we’re 11 years past that and there’s still ice there.
I honestly don’t know if climate change is real, because half the studies are funded by oil companies and the other half of studies are funded by evil groups that want us to live in pods and eat bugs, the olde “you will own nothing and be happy” types.
I keep hearing from the latter that we’re all going to die because of climate change at whatever date they say, then we pass that time and we’re still here.

the people I know don’t listen and often hear the opposite of what I say. That’s why I have to repeat myself a lot.
