I don't care about being hip, woke or cool. It's just my perspective of the World. Also speaking of experience, I don't see how I have a disease for example.
In my view, it's mostly the environment provided that's at fault. E.g. social expectations. I think it's a good thing for there to be variance of the way people perceive the World.
I had a rough childhood, but I wouldn't have wanted someone to change who I am. I had a rough childhood because of the expected standards for how a person should behave or be socially.
Now as I am older, and more confident, successful and have proven that given good environment I can do amazing, I understand how ridiculous people are being with their social requirements. None of it is needed.
Also I find it quite funny how people treat labels in psychiatry as some sort of gospel or an actual thing.
Autism is clearly a "spectrum" disorder that is not fully understood or categorized yet, which is exactly why we need this type of research to reach a conclusive, testable biological basis.
To portray severely afflicted people as simply "neurodiverse" and dismiss treatment options for them, is far more bigoted than the reverse.
