My doctor uses it.


bottom line, the guy that first recognized Aspergers, Hans Asperger was a nazi.

For him and the Nazi party, the diagnosis was anyone with it was high functioning enough that they could be taught to blend into society instead of simply putting them down.

In the last decade or so, its been folded under the autism umbrella.

The autistic community doesnt care for the label, as being labeled as acceptable to an actual nazi isnt something that people like me generally care for.

Are we talking about Aspergers like it's a bad thing because neurotypical people don't like some of its characteristics?

To say nothing of Musk? Tough shit.

eh... i'm sure we've all done some wild and crazy things (myself included).

Who among us is pure enough to judge the worth of a man's soul?

Overall I do feel he's an exceptional human. I admire his innovation, that he doesn't take himself too seriously (he's not convinced any of this is real), and genuinely wants to better humanity.
I think he genuinely might suffer from solipsism syndrome.

Interesting, did not know that. So is there any actual difference between "high functioning", I believe that's what people say instead, and aspergers, or is it just a relabeling for the sake of shaking that gross connection?

You dont surpass Jeff Bezos as richest man on Earth because you got money from your dad.

And that's why I gave up on the journey to become the richest man after asking my dad to buy me it. Also disowned my dad. He was always trying to spend time with me and give me unconditional love. Like a broke ass beta male.

I dunno if it is. Things need to be categorized to create instances to help specific people with specific issues, and someone with high "functioning" autism has different need than someone who is non-verbal.

More importantly, he's a billionaire, which is why we should take all of his property away from him.

its definitely a better term than Aspergers, but a lot of the community dont care for that particular label as it boils autism down to a scale of high/low functioning when the reality is more complex though.

Personally, it doesnt bother me that much, I prefer it to Aspergers simply because it doesnt carry the connection to nazism, but also because it can quickly and briefly explain that 99 times out of 100 hundred I can manage myself.

its definitely a more gray area.
