I will only waste a few of my words on 'autism'.

Almost all of the persons labeled 'autistic' are labeled so because of being smart, not because of being bad at communicating.

It is simply the lack of proper psychiatrists.

I myself, for instance, have been sent to the psychiatrists because I 'would have' ADHD, autism and a lot more of this kind of crap. First psychiatrist actually said I had, so my parents went for a second opinion. Turned out I didn't have any disorders, I was just.. smart.

Intelligence does get labled a disease now-a-days for one reason or another. I do see earth reaching the point of "Idiocracy" very soon. I hope it is not within my life time and I feel sorry for my future linage.

ON ANOTHER NOTE: This has been WAY off topic for SOME TIME now.

*nods* I'm surprised no-one's split it yet. :roll:
Also--yes, Idiocracy is terrifying--'specially that bit at the beginning about the breeding rate of...less intelligent people? Sad but true.

And people that do dare think are being treated like outsiders, labeled for things like 'autism'.

XKCD for the win.
Still, though, I can't help but feel stupid people are breeding. :roll: I grew up in the South, what do you expect?

Eh, the whole "Southern People R Stoopid" thing is really just 100-year old back-up (i.e. shit) from the Civil War, and the resulting KKK, racism, etc. etc. ad infinitum. So yeah, to put it simply, our whole psyche's messed up.

Anyway! Where were we?

Ja-en. Although unfortunately, stereotypes evolved for a reason, ja?

I try my best to not form any stereotypes.
Or not take them into my judgements.

I try my best, but honestly I think forming stereotypes is something kind of built into us. I just supress it when I make judgements/decisions/meet people. I don't know :S
