Blaming NTs

A

I’m really disappointed in a lot of recent posts which reek of prejudice and blame against “NTs”. it’s as if “NT” has suddenly become a safe word to slur other people with.

”NT’s” are the majority of humanity. They are a hugely diverse bunch. The vast majority of them are just ordinary people having a difficult enough time managing their own lives.

They are not to blame for our individual situations. They didn’t make your life the way it is.

Some of the stuff I’ve seen on here this weekend would’ve been reported to death if it had been directed at other groups.

Please, stop. You have to be better than this.

  • I agree.

    I will admit that I suggested that we form an autistic army to seize control and enslave the normies (and only had ONE TAKER) three years ago but I've adjusted my thinking since then.

    It's US who have the problem!

    OH wait, I've just watched John Carpenters "They Live" during film night, maybe it's them after all...

    I don't like this thinking about things business, it's HARD, where's my book of preconceptions gone? 

    (tongue in cheek, humourous post, no normies were harned during it's production..)

    No, I just don’t live in an echo chamber and blame random strangers for my life.

    That’s not the same as stating the fact that non autistic people expect us to conform to neuro normative expectations which is actively harmful.

    Sorry if that’s blunt but I’m very fed up with some of what’s posted on this forum. It is not helpful.

    I understand that but our autistic community should be a safe space to discuss how non autistic people frequently misunderstand us not to mention ostracise or invalidate us.
