Lets declare war on the NT's !

Wink Lets declare war on the NT's ! Good got your attention Tongue Out, they say a fight draws a crowd.

Just a joke, but I wonder what an Autism city would look like ? if we were a genetic tribe.

Would there be any war, politics, poverty etc,,,, would asperger REASON raise above low thought forms of survival, politics and ethics ?

Reason in my definition is,, a natural law, it does not matter what interest or merit some pretend king or group has,, REASON DOES NOT CHANGE AN UNIVERSE LAW FOR ANYONE,, IT IS CONSTANT LIKE THE SUN. Smile

What would an aspie only city look like ? Would it mirror a combination of Switzerland, Silicon Valley, MIT &  CERN ? Laughing THE NEW ATHENS. 

Would Sheldon or Spock be our spokes leader of reason under the great oath of reason.

Would we situate the City in the Alps or Florence ?

 

 

  • I think you are taking the 'speak your mind' too far with this one and everything you are saying is just wishful thinking. I wouldn't be willing to join your cause because I think in a realistic way, I think things through in as much detail as possible before refining the idea and publishing it.

    In this day and age, I think most employers / companies usually don't care what learning disability or difficulty you have, therefore in the world you want to create you wouldn't have to worry about it and get your dream job.

    Right now, my future doesn't look too good, with organisations looking for communicable and upfront people, the prospects for my dream job are fading away and that is the realistic way of thinking.

  • Lets start with an autism/aspie village first Laughing to test the model and framework. I think the world has done this before, I think they called it Athens and the aspie atheans all worked in the great librarySmile hee hee

    Thanks for the link Caretwo.., quote Easy "

    people will select for intelligence, focus and ability to be calm and organised.

    Extreme violent behaviour may be screened out by governments or criminal record checks. ""

    That would be a good start, in ancient china and even today in asians countries of China and Japan, people were selected for government positions based on intellect testing. Very Aspie..

    It maybe an eugenic experiment in some sense, but as Locommotion states,, "NTs would be diagnosed with "Neurotypical Disorder"..

    Lets start by campaigning for that, a Neurotypical Disorder classification for the world, because in my autistic world,, most people I know and meet are CRAZY acting normal.

    Unfortunately I often fail on the filling coffee mug to the brim crime against logic. I am rather uncoordinated. I pretty much agree with the rest though, although considering how everyone with AS is different, I don't know how it can all be enforced. Some people with AS are hyposensitive to noise, and actually crave it, as well as inflicting it on others.

    Ah, but are you then expecting somebody else (who is often fairly clumsy) to walk through a crowded cafe with it? ;)

    There could be dedicated "noisy places".  And as the flats would all be fairly soundproof people coould still be noisy/play music inside without it disturbing others.  I'm not always the quietest person myself as I tend to speak too loudly without realising it.  Back in the day they used to be able to build pretty soundproof flats/houses but the knowledge of how to do this seems to have been lost over time. When I was looking for a flat I basically discounted anything built since 1980.

    My comments are, of course, tongue in cheeck so not meant to offend anybody.

  • When can we move in Zem?

    I don't think there would be an ice cream shop that sell 70 flavours of icecream, I think there would be several shops each selling just one flavour of icecream Laughing

  • All of the flats would have very good soundproofing between them.

    Shops would not play annoying music whilst you tried to shop (especially when you were trying to decide between stereos to buy!)

    Politics could be a lot simpler if lying was done away with and people had to actually answer the question that they'd been asked.

    Food wastage may be reduced with lots of people having nice predictable diets.  And if on a school trip I went into a famous ice cream shop with about 70 flavours and had vanilla it would be taken as meaning that I just liked vanilla ice cream best rather than as some tragic, ungrateful, disordered act.

    Train conductors might actually enforce the "quiet carriage" rules.

    There would be a "defence of reason" act with stiff penalties for crimes against logic. These would include installing kitchen units onto a bare plaster wall before painting it, filling somebody's coffee mug right to the brim so that they can't fit any milk in, signs saying "automatic door, press button to open", making cycle lanes that are narrower than bikes etc.

    I think that there would be a fair share of Germany in it.  They seem pretty good at getting things running and keeping things ordered there.
