Angry_Autist (he/him)

lemmy is going the way of reddit at a record pace and as usual the mods and admins don’t care

Or you know, buses and trains for people that can handle them, and cars for people who can’t

If you envision a world where no accommodation is made for those who struggle then you are not a person that should be in charge of anything

It’s the typical ‘Terrible things never happen because they haven’t happened to me’ mentality

Um, that’s not my post. That’s not even from lemmy.

What the fuck is wrong with you?

Appreciate it, thankfully it slid off my ribs and only needed stitches but that was nearly half a century ago and I still have to do a lot of mental prep work to sit down that close to strangers

Also as for your ‘don’t look like a person who wants to get stabbed again’ line, I know you made it as a joke but statistically autists are targeted for violence by abusers and those abusers describe it all as visual cues that lead them to violence so maybe something to consider.

My fear of being stabbed again isn’t 100% rational and won’t just go away because I cross an imaginary geographic line PEOPLE are insane, just the U.S. has a higher concentration

Nothing in my statement said conservatives, you made that up out of bad faith so why are you demanding good faith now?

Why cripple myself with rules you refuse to follow?

For you maybe, and my worry isn’t not being anonymous, it’s getting stabbed again

Add a little nuance to your argument and I’ll engage

Also you didn’t parse the sentence correctly, I was specifically referring to MY mental illnesses

Hey maybe you can create one of those super fundamental dependency libraries that XKCD talked about

Odds are they are American and if you haven’t noticed our culture is pretty hell bent on rejecting civic duty

Fully agreed but even clean as a whistle I am not comfortable being around that many people ever

That’s nice, no medication I’ve found yet lets me ride public transportation without constantly freaking out from human proximity but I bet it is just so pleasant to have a normal brain

or they could be, like me, mentally ill folk who really cannot handle being forced to be around other people

But generalizations are fun aren’t they!

I hate being within arms reach of people so fuck your subways and your neurotypical ease with dealing with ridiculously overstimulating stress-filled situations

To be educated is to be indoctrinated

Satanists indoctrinate people

Therefore centers of higher education are demonic recruitment camps, makes perfect sense to me, this is certainly not the product of a mind made soft by half a century of deliberate crippling of public education

In all seriousness as a person who watched the original Satanic Panic unfold real-time, innocent people are going to get their lives ruined by this and this time around there is zero journalistic integrity to counter it.

Is it wrong to want to occupy the perfect Venn overlap between those two?

we entered our ‘death throes’ when Nixon was pardoned, it’s just taken some time to start rotting from within

We live on a cultural whale-fall and we’re eating ourselves now
