Can anyone tell me what they think of the usage of the N.T concept with regards to this video?

I think it shows a psychosocial divide between people. Like for instance there is hate about the word Asperger's Syndrome online from people as well. What is the reason for this divide between people types?

Dividing people into types is useful if we have to reason on the difference, but being uspet with *ALL* NTs is plain stupid. It would be like hating all white people or such - just another form of racism.

He seems like a very angry individual.


There are good and bad NTs just like there are good and bad people on the spectrum.

I briefed an article today in the news about white people (I am white) thinking they are hated and a new civil rights cause should be for them. This topic is complicated. The more anyone on any side who feels discriminated against feeds into those feelings I think the more psychological and social damage may be done and when applicable. That's not to say discrimination does not happen. I just don't think many approaches in solving those matters are going to lead to universally the best outcomes.

Judge not by the label but by the character of an individual. I'd say the world lacks subjectivity but then I would not be subjective enough toward the character of the world. So in idea it is not color of skin, disability, so called normal or not and whatever general stereotype that fails to lead to an absolute understanding but the subjective individual truth.

These rationalities of anger are a great waste of time.
