I'm curious. Who would be admitted to Aspitopia? Would I have a chance, with my limited talking abilities, and my lack of special interests? Would a genetic test be required? A brain scan? A diagnosis by one of ten approved experts? And what exactly are you planning to do with your NT, "LFA", DS etc. kids? Eugenics, anyone?

Just curious, what is the minimum IQ score to move to Aspitopia?

Probably 100, because of all the bigoted Aspies who think that you're not a valuable human being unless you're smart.

...yeah, I think it's a bad idea. Can you tell?

Questions of this nature should be forwarded to the Minister of Serious Business.

Thank you. My IQ is 80, I guess I will have to move elsewhere. But let me test my IQ first...

If you fail, maybe we can do something together? Perhaps something that has to do with accepting people as they are? Or maybe we can "share" IQ points? I seem to have a lot that I never use anyway.

Or we'd restrict the government and let people pursue their obsessions unmolested. (Wasn't Jefferson an aspie?)

and how many people would you see walking about socialising with other people?


None? For our socializing, we'd need some bad-ass network capacity.

Anyway, with our strong stand against bullying (which bad governments do a lot of and good governments do little of) and our "live-and-let-live" attitude, I think we could make a kick-ass country that would become America 2.0. (No slavery this time!)

I figure all we have to do is get a critical mass of Aspies to populate the place and get it up and running, and NTs will avoid it like the plague, at least until it's kicking everyone's ass economically.

Qualification to get in: you must want it bad enough, and function well enough (however that works out for you) to get there. I say we colonize Antarctica and use lots of nuclear reactors to make our homes there livable and power our gizmos.

Diagnosed under the DSM5 rules with autism spectrum disorder, under DSM4 psychologist said would have been AS (299.80) but I suspect that I am somewhere between 299.80 and 299.00 (Autism) under DSM4.

Why not occupy Western Sahara instead of letting the Moroccans have that desert land? :lol:

Is antisocialism a valid method of government?
