None of us can do it alone. But with comrades we can transcend the idea of Autism / Aspergers as some sort of difference or deficiency, and instead come to see all the ways in which we have been subjected to horrid abuses. And often these abuses will have started with a rejection very early in life.
And so instead of seeing ourselves as having to measure up to some normative standards, instead we can find comrades and create a deterrence against those who would continue the abuses. We do not have to follow the example of some well published Autism / Asperger's advocates who try to teach everyone to live as an Uncle Tom, by seeking pity.
We can then see that disability labels are the ultimate form of self-denigration, and that instead of using these, we can instead celebrate how great it is to not be subject to the herd and its conformity, and to have intelligence and mystical abilities, and to be seeking meaning and intimacy in all of our affairs.
And for those who give out the diagnoses and assessments, of autism, aspergers, and this neurological difference, that clearly falls within the Nuremberg definition of Crimes Against Humanity. And we do not have to depend upon governments in order to enforce. For example, in Germany NGO's can and do get indictments and arrest warrants against perpetrators anywhere in the world.
The main thing is that we first stop accepting the disability labels and stop beating up on ourselves and each other, and going along with the idea that we have some sort of deficiency or defect, or need to some how be reformed.
Of course I would never submit to any type of diagnosis or assessment and am completely opposed to such, and to the criminal medial establishment which perpetrates this. I would no more go along with that than I would make an appointment for my next general physical exam with Josef Mengele.
Glad to see the high activity level on this forum. My first post!
