We need to demand equal representation of ADHD people in politics, media and in the boardroom.

We're in oppressive times folks. Non ADHD people shoudlnt be running everything.

Last I checked, demanding didn't do jack. Not unless it has leverage.

I'd bet that there are plenty of politicians with ADHD who don't talk about it. Just as there are certainly plenty of politicians with personality disorders who don't talk about it.

We need to demand more than that. All of those venues don’t have enough seats to be representative, even if you consider one seat per representation.

Please don’t do oppression Olympics. It’s just a wedge that benefits no one. We’re better off building bonds and acting in solidarity.

By the way, there’s a very high overlap between LGBTQIA+ and ADHD and autism (hi including me, I’m queer, I’m nonbinary, I’m grey-asexual, I’m ADHD and I’m autistic). And there’s a multiple generations of similar struggles among us.

Unfortunately no one has the focus to work on this longer than a day.
