Is Neurodiversity Possibly Evolution?

Daniel

I've seen lots of videos by people who think autism may be evolution to humanity. 

I think neurodiversity instead of autism is possibly evolution to humanity. As times going by more and more people are been diagnosed with a neurological difference, neurological differences are increasing. 

I were taught the only genes that survive are genes we require, since all these genes are increasing we are requiring them even more. 

Do you think some point in the future all humans will have a neurodivergent condition making neurodiversity part of evolution?

  • It is evolutionary if it helps us to be better adapted to our environment. Autism may make us better adapted to the world as it is (as in natural systems) but we are poorly adapted for the socially constructed world. If we do manage to respond appropriately to our damaged ecosystem then autism may be an asset in a world where authentic connection to nature is essential.
