The thing is I haven't seen people use the term
some neurotopicals.. and neurototypical is often used as a slur which is indeed bigoted.
I do not deny that there is discrimination against people who have ASD. Many people with various disabilities suffer through the same experiences.. and disability stigma does not help. It is a shame that some on WP are also
no more tolerant of disabilities than neurotypicals as apparently seeing some forms of autism a disability would put me on the list. Why? Is having a disability something people should feel ashamed of?
"You are either with us or against us"?
I feel like this whole thread is just trying to suck people into hateful group think.
