🧠 Autism General 🧠
A thread for the most Autistic of Leftists such as myself to discuss politics related to Autism.
I don't know if this should be in Siberia or not but I guess mods could move it if it does

This is what I meant by reactionary drivel, amongst a bunch of other things. Straight up denying reality.
I never faked anything, instead everyone always bullied me for being different and made sure to tell me how out of place I was everywhere. The "different" things I had in me since I was a god damn toddler fit with every descriptor of autism and I was diagnosed as one. I've been treated like shit by even my own family my whole life and then even the people supposed to be conscious and against chauvinism and whatnot are as reactionary and cruel as everybody else on this specific topic. Crazy stuff.

>>750209
You should hate your parents for having raised you like shit and made you believe in this nonsense then, you are not autistic, you have never been, real autism are the people who can't speak or who can barely speak, you can have a close to normal life and your parents prefferred thinking you were sick then accept your personality.

>>750207
don't listen to anyone here. most of them decided between coming here or becoming a neo-nazi incel and decided that not affording rent was slightly more important to them than never getting pussy

>>750202
No, no. Neetbux. I'll figure it out.

>>750202
I plan on living with my sister.

>>750213
and then people wonder why abortion rates are so high

Decided to watch Bones because of its "autism-coded" (whatever the fuck that means) female protagonist and she's just another boring "Hollywood genius" type. House MD keeps winning.

>>750215
I liked watching House at the gym when I used to go many years ago. That's the only place I would really watch it at.

>>750164
was the gay porn wojak neccessary

>>750217
Yes

why is this thread in the main board

>>750217
cant believe theres mongoloids masturbating to fucking soyjaks man we are so cooked

>>750219
honestly at this point i feel like people wanking their shit to wojaks is pretty tame

>>750220
its like jerking off to emoji

>>750221
What if the emoji is arousing though?

>>750202
I work part-time and I’m looking to move in with roommates who can tolerate my autistic traits as soon as I’m able to.

>>750094
the two immediate responses this post got is proof this thread is worthless

>>750202
Question for autists on here:

>Do you have a job and live alone?
Not yet, still in collage and live with my parents because nobody can afford houses anymore.
>If you still live with your parents, what do you plan on doing when your parents get too old and can't take care of you anymore?
Hey I take care of myself!

>>749997
I love my autistic bros
Also a few questions:
Are people with autism/adhd more likely to be more condescending than people with autism/aspergers? My experiences with the former has not been the best because they are overwhelming and it feels like they grift and aren't in touch with ordinary people.
What happens if you guys get overwhelmed? Do you lash out or?
What do you guys feel if someone takes an interest in your interest IRL? Usually autistic people I've interacted with online don't really show it till days after.
Is it easy to figure you guys out IRL? I have no idea if I ever saw an autistic guy irl, are you guys usually susceptible to black and white thinking?
How long does it take for you guys to lose interest in something?

>>752346
>I love my autistic bros
Cool, but do you have autism as well and your calling us your bros in a fellowship kinda of way or are you neurotypical and doing so as a term of endearment?
>Are people with autism/adhd more likely to be more condescending than people with autism/aspergers?
Autism and Aspergers are the same thing, they just merged Asperger's syndrome into the Autism spectrum disorder in 2013 when they realized that Hans Asperger the Austrian Doctor who it was named after was possibly a Nazi. But as for your question I don't know.
>What happens if you guys get overwhelmed? Do you lash out or?
It depends, Autistic people are not monolithic, its not like the common-cold were you act the same, everyone is deferent.
>Is it easy to figure you guys out IRL? I have no idea if I ever saw an autistic guy irl
It can either be hard or easy, Autism is not like Down-sydrome where it affects the body, autism only affects the mind. So it depends on the support needs.
>are you guys usually susceptible to black and white thinking?
Yeah, I sure as hell was as a kid but I grew out of it as I got older but some other autistic might have more trouble.

>>752365
Allistic, every interaction I've had with an autistic guy has almost always been positive
Did it take a lot of time to grow out of the black and white thinking? Did you cut relationships if I may ask from it, since there could be a few mishaps/misunderstandings
Are very high functioning autistic common? Feels like I have seen a lot more over the years
Where do you guys usually hang out? Pubs or library events? Trains?
How can I help you guys if I can spot autistic people? Are there any triggers a lot commonly have
Do people get more friendly/autistic as they grow older because a lot of older people seem to have traits I feel could be similar
Have a good day anon

OPD is literally for reactionaries who ruin their own life anon. People with OPD would stick their hand in a blender if you told them not to.

>>752376
but dooood the funny wojak said otherwise. clearly that memer knows about psychology

>>750102
people forgot about this classic

>>750198
I'm interested in seeing an example.

>>750018
basically to reclaim the word. yeah autistic diagnosis was made by eugenicists and made to officiate exclusion and maybe bullying by allistics so the idea is to reclaim the identity and build support systems to help deal w annoying things like overstimulation, communication deficits and such(im not gonna write everything) has that happened? not really, like most internet spaces its just turned into a place w petty drama and cliques(ironic right? we cant get communication but we do have a tendency towards those large macro social dynamics haha) and venting spaces

>Autism is a fake disorder made up by sheltered first world bastards

Tell me you've never dealt with neuropsychological problems without telling you have never dealt with neuropsychological problems



>>750083
>>750080
IPads are the new pathology now?
Remember smartphones and video games being blamed for childrens flaws?
Also I find it funny that people claim electronic media doesn't help with imagination when we have diverse amount of fanart and creative videos and arts-and-crafts tutorials.
If anything the real reason for kids lack of social skills is adults being too hypersensitive to childrens flaws/nuances.


>>750143
Ironically its the people over eighteen that's causing most of the faux pas.
Most under eighteen online patrons would be busy watching videos or making fanart and sharing it with friends.

To all the posters saying autism is fake, I have to remind you that autism is a neurocognitive disorder.

It affects thought processing and motor skills.
The social aspect of autism is due to being treated like shit because of neurocognitive disorder.

>>753772
True

>>753768
it was art it was books it was movies it was the tv it was the phone its all the fucking same. culture wars. ok maybe this is just a permanent feature

is it common for people with autism get diagnosticated very early?? like at 3 years or 2 years of age, or it is rare?

>>754139
It's not rare nowadays.

>>754129
This. Any media format that's popular with children is always pathologized as automatically bad.
Hell, even ballsports were seen as bad at one point

Electronic media isn't a unique evil
It's over use is due to kids not being allowed any free range play outside.

Kids are banned from.any autonomous recreation outside the house.
And physical activity toys are physical liabilities

>>754129
>>754144
No, things aren't just the same but with a different coat of paint and not everything popular with kids is pathologized as bad even nowadays. Video Games were basically board games but on a screen,but functionally it was the same you still have to play with people who were in the room. Playing physical media required kids to think about what they want to see and not an algorithim and a corp could not take your access away. Phones are alienating everyone, not just kids. Plenty of boomers are tied to their phones as much as a gen alpha kid.

>>754177
>Playing physical media required kids to think about what they want to see and not an algorithim and a corp could not take your access away.

Are you seriously gonna use 'muh algorithm ' as an excuse?

>Phones are alienating everyone, not just kids. Plenty of boomers are tied to their phones as much as a gen alpha kid.

Why are we using Gen Alpha as the definition of "pathologized youth" here?
Five years ago it was Gen Z, fifteen years ago, it was Gen Y

Also, there are mobile games that connect different players across the world. If anything, TV is more alienating.

>Video Games were basically board games but on a screen,but functionally it was the same you still have to play with people who were in the room.

Arcade games were one-player games back in the day.
Nowadays, mobile games have you play off against people around the world.

If phones were really just the sole problem, why were kids suffering from alienation before them?

Have you looked at how current year society bars kids from any autonomous recreation outside of the house?

Everything is locked behind a paywall and after school jobs are becoming a rarity due to liability laws and hyper-obsession with academia.
Teen dating is discouraged if not banned.

There are many neighborhoods with no pedestrian spaces for children to safely assemble.

Also, schools used to have more break time for kids. We took that away in favor of more benchmark tests.
PE is being reduced to make time for more test learning.

>>754177
Having trouble connecting the algorithm thing to games. Could you elaborate on that?
>>754186
>muh algorithm
Social media algorithms are a problem but not the root problem. The issue is that kids are on average stuck on centralized social media and don't surf the web much.

Being whedonistic about it because you're too low emotional intelligence to explain your grievances with it being brought up isn't helpful.
>Why are we using Gen Alpha as the definition of "pathologized youth" here?
They're still young enough that they don't know how to cope with this stuff yet. Gen Z knows about uBlock and fedi and such these days.

I think these kinds of conversations would be more evergreen if we just said age ranges instead of generation labels but eh.

>>754221
>fedi
stop shilling your website here

>>754221
>Being whedonistic about it because you're too low emotional intelligence to explain your grievances with it being brought up isn't helpful.

You're the one being low emotional intelligence with the whole "kids these days"

>They're still young enough that they don't know how to cope with this stuff yet. Gen Z knows about uBlock and fedi and such these days.

Bruh, ten year olds are not shooting up schools or doing political farces, that's adults.
Also your at-leastism is bullshit.

>>754221
>Social media algorithms are a problem but not the root problem. The issue is that kids are on average stuck on centralized social media and don't surf the web much.

Idk how true that is. Gacha, DeviantArt and a lot of fanfiction sites say otherwise

>>752376
>>752713
Disusting. You cucks are needy for validation by the DSM you shit all over children being locked up and forcibly medicated because of a bullshit ODD diagnosis just so you can cling to your puzzlefag victim identity.
Ever notice it's impossible to find a first person account of a person who has ODD? How descriptions of it are always made by frustrated third party "authority figures"? It's because it's a label imposed on people who, unlike you, don't embrace being pigeonholed and labeled as subhuman by the medical dictatorship.

>>754243
These people choose what ever psychiatric diagnoses fit their political fantasies

>>754239
>Gacha
That's a itch.io dress up game
>Deviantart
Still a centralized platform
>Fanfiction sites
I don't know what fanfic sites are big enough to be a problem, but I think fanfic kids surf more than the rest of their age group at least thanks to the scene being fairly spread out.
Like fanfic sites still feel like forums and not digital black holes. People still know to back their stuff up.

>>754293
How is DeviantArt centralized compared to Facebook and Twitter?
May as well say 4chan is centralized

>>754297
>How is DeviantArt centralized compared to Facebook and Twitter?
Centralized meaning it's a single, walled garden platform, rather than a protocol like email or activitypub, or just having a personal site.

>May as well say 4chan is centralized
It is but there's no accounts and things are either backed up to desuarchive or deleted after 20 minutes of inactivity, so it's not as bad mechanically–at least in regards to being centralized vs just being a forum. It used to be other imageboard weren't that active, so 4chan still had some exclusivity on the high-PPH english-speaking imageboard experience, but that's changed and 4chan has declined over the years.

There's been hubbub about walled gardens lately as tumblr, twitter and tiktok have all had exodi recently and users realized how much of a hassle migrating is and how much users going to different walled gardens either narrows their social circles or inflates the list of websites they have to visit to keep up with people. Non-walled gardens don't have those issues.

My biggest Autistic hyper fixation currently is screen-recording PragerU videos and editing them in CapCut to make them nonsensical

>>754317
i think this is a pretty funny hyperfixation to have. mines just writing fan fiction.

>>754321
Cool, I don't know if the PragerU thing is as much of a hyperfixation as much as a hobby but I find myself doing it at least every other day so maybe

>>754317
>hyperfixation
<changing
stop pretending to be autistic

>>754317
That's how YouTube Poops are made

>>750214
More like why the birth rates are so low

>>754327
You think it's static? Hyper-fixations stick around and are intrusive, but they aren't static, because nothing in a brain made of meat is static.
