It's a veiled attack so the person attacking gets away with it.
FYI: The member who created the thread you mention was banned earlier after receiving warnings - not only for posting misogynistic statements and generalised hate against NTs, but also for making offensive posts and PMs about his obsession: poop.

I note you didn't report that thread, now removed.


Oh Good, that means I don't have to open the PM he sent me and can delete it.


Or just forward it to me, I'll read it. :lol:
I’d forward you some sensational PMs, but I don’t think I have any about poop.

To be fair, my favourite sensational emails don't mention poop. :mrgreen:

Everyone bristles when they get given the brush-off?

I'm sorry, that's all I've got.

Fnord's post on my thread might have been a generalisation about dogs, before making this one.
Sorry if I mixed it up. Same sentiment. . .
Yes, you caught me out, Ms. Linton, and rightly so.  This thread was inspired by YOUR post, and carried on the sarcastic tone therefrom.

And yes, Mr. Flake, the sarcasm is directed toward the act of claiming "Since a member of Group X did Y to me, then I condemn all members of Group X because they are all capable of doing Y."

Sometimes, ya just gotta say sumpin'.


:D

^ I did not want you to think I was being sarcastic toward you, so I moved it to this thread.

Some Aspies here do hold a grudge against all NTs though because they've encountered a few nasty NTs in their lives who bullied them.

I've been mistreated by NTs in my life too but I don't tar them all with the same brush, because as an adult I know that not all NTs are the same. I just hate bullies, doesn't matter which brain wiring they have. I would never say "I hate NTs" (unless I was being hyperbolic in a rant or something and not literally meaning the whole entire NT population).

Movies featuring bullies still trigger my "Run Away!" reflex almost fifty years after graduating high school, but NTs can still be counted among my friends.
