What do you think about the idea that autistic people should have our own state

I don't see how one could be carved out in the world without conquest and violence. So, I'm out.

It's possible via two methods:

1. Claiming uninhabited territory (the most likely solution)

2. Taking land with the consent of the people living there

A commune would probably be more viable.  Rather than our own nation state.

Drink the Kool Aid Catwoman!  lol  You're right it could go pear shaped and be taken over by a Jim Jones  type figure.

There's 600 people on the discord server so this could really happen.  One of the Danish Communes survived for decades so it's possible it that it could work out relatively well.  I will be watching from afar.

Honestly I'd hate it! Many peple would want to live somewhere warm and sunny, or hot and bright, in my language, I need seasons, I like wind and rain.

I think there would be to many variables to consider, I never want to smell bacon cooking ever again or fish frying, or BBQ's would I still be inside with my windows shut all the time?

I think some sort of takeover by some wannabe silver back would be pretty inevitable, those sort of people are never to be trusted especially around women and girls.

I suspect that someone like me would be kicked out or killed pretty quickly.

I don't think it is fair to list in public which members of the forum I like and dislike.

I'm not sure I'd want to live there but an Autistic commune would be feasible.  But you'd have to have the right Autistics in it to make it work.

Absolutely!

If this forum is a microcosm of autistic society (lower support needs than some - I can't think which term I'm allowed to use now) then which members would you like to live with?
