Welcome again.....and perhaps you could cut and paste your other post for context in here too.
I'll leave you alone now - I'm feeling like a right frigging busybody = not how I want nor intend to project myself.
In terms of the point you raise, I'm afraid that my feelings are aligned with the wise words of Plastic on this type of matter - ie we must be VERY careful just how many "special interest" groups we try to define and then offer legal protections and safeguards to for fear of such mechanisms becoming meaningless by their universality. I'm not sure how one would set about defining "neuro diversity" for the purpose you want it for. Just my opinion.
Thank you yes this is tremendously useful feedback.
Neurodiversity in this context is a subset of Biodiversity.
The goal is to protect not only disabled people but also people whose environment is disabling them and who might not perceive themselves as disabled.
It also should raise awareness about traits and triggers within the environment. Which is why I ask for an intersectional approach to disability and relationship to the environment be it physical cultural social economic or political.

Not only differences in communication. Social exclusion, alienation , gossiping , bullying we need to find a way to protect people from those. Which is why the traits need to be more acknowledged and recognised as their own sector. Because sure I can get all the accomodations sorted out for me in the world how is that going to help of I am still being socially isolated and bullied ?
Triggers within the environment. ...that's quite broad as it's very different for different people. A lot of difficulties come down to differences in communication...how do you legislate for that?
Forgive me, I don't understand the point you are making..."what" seems really hard to manage?...and "who" is getting targeted, and targeted for what?
It seems that The Flower Umbrella is referring to the difficulty of dealing with people secretly starting demeaning rumours against one or more others ~ as a means to socially segregate, humiliate and violate them psychologically or also physiologically, for the sake of decreasing their target's credibility and thereby further increasing their own as a powerful individual or group of individuals.
For those who have no knowledge of the 'Dark Tetrad' as being: Psychopathy, Machiavellianism, Sadism, and Narcissism ~ here follows the abstract and link to the summarised article 'Examining the Dark Tetrad and Its Links to Cyberbullying':
Cyberbullying is a growing problem in the fast-evolving world of social media. Although this problem has been studied extensively, there is relatively little research examining it from the angle of the dark tetrad (i.e., psychopathy, Machiavellianism, sadism, and narcissism), especially across different ethnicities. In other words, this research makes original contribution by exploring the predictive ability of the dark tetrad traits in individuals of different ethnicities and their subsequent willingness to engage in cyberbullying. The study (n = 1,464) explores whether there is a positive association between the dark tetrad personality traits and cyberbullying. The results reveal that all four traits predict cyberbullying in participants from across three different ethnicities (Asian, black, and white). Furthermore, female participants score less than their male counterparts across all four traits. Researchers, academics, and legislators might potentially benefit from this research by considering focusing their interventions on helping offenders minimize the display of certain personality traits, thus taking steps toward cyberbullying reduction.
ND also includes the dark tetrad in your view ? Some traits need to be managed, traits that can lead to abusive behaviour. If we are looking at the dichotomy of NT Vs ND is the dark tetrad ND or NT ? I think most people are hybrids and different traits will come out or be perceived based on the intersectional environment (cultural, political, economic, physical and social ). From my personal experience most people act out of ignorance but there should be a way of protection of those who are suffering from bullying even if they don't see themselves as being targeted based on a disability or as the current act puts it " mental impairment".
Understood, I just think the complexity and universality of these issues (both for NT and ND folk) render the proposition unweildy. But again, I do wish you well and admire your pursuit of your own convictions.
