I believe NT people(non AS/ASD people)spend all of their time socializing,gossiping,partying(if they're in their teens,20s,and people in their early and mid 30s),looking down or hating Aspies,etc.By the way, this isn't just extroverts who act like this.Even the most introverted NT people act like this and even NT'S neurological disorders such as Bi Polar disorder,Schizophrenia,ADHD,along with everyone else who doesn't have Autism/Aspergers act like this as well.I believe we as Aspies are superior becasue of what we go through.We are also more logical.We are not annoying.We don't gossip. We don't ridicule other people or look down on other people.Also,we don't need to have any friendships or romantic relationships unlike the other 99% of the population, whether it's becasue we don't have the desire to or we simply just not bother anymore becasue of being rejected so much.We as AS/ASD people are a far different and superior people.

Bipolar Disorder, schizophrenia and ADHD are not NT disorders alone. Autistics also get them.

Can you imagine if this world was populated mainly by us? Given that the majority of us don't mate, the world population would go to zero in a few generations.

If we fall prey to "superior" thinking, how does that differ from how the Nazi's thought, or for that matter, white supremacists?

Superior? Nah. We're just different.

I totally dig working for my NT supervisor.....she is quite a character in a good way. I'm ok with most people as long as I get my down time.

Neither do a lot of NTs.

We are not superior, and they are not superior either; we are equal.

Maybe the fact is that most of us don't date/mate is because the fact the NT's are 99% of the population and it's very hard to find another Aspie. We are not just different,but we are also superior becasue we don't ridicule people,gossip, we don't act like we need to socialize 24/7 or at all for that matter,we are more logical.Also people who have Bi Polar Disorder,ADHD,Schizophrenia,or any other neurological condition that isn't Autism/Asperger are still NT people that spend their time socializing,gossiping and looking down or hating on Aspies.

Another NT-basher who thinks autistics are the only non-NT people in mankind and also that autistics are superior.

Yeah, some autistics might be superior but not ALL. I certainly ain't, and I don't even want to be superior. And I'm Aspie but I enjoy socialising and gossiping, so stick that in your pipe and smoke it.

Edit.
You made a similar post in the social skills and making friends forum. What gives?

I don't ascribe to that way of thinking. I can understand you being frustrated in having to live in a world that seems "stacked against you". I get that, believe me.

How is thinking ND people are superior to NT people any different than NT people thinking they're superior to ND people?

I believe "reverse racism" being an accepted viewpoint is total crap for that same reason.

The whole: "It's OK for the discriminated to discriminate against their discriminators..." Wrong. It's not OK for anyone to discriminate against anyone else, period.

It seems some feminist fringe thinking is similar: "Woman were subjugated by men so the best remedy is for men to be subjugated in kind by women."

(Hothead Paisan is an interesting comic though.... :) )

Endless spiral of crap with that kind of thinking.

Belief is not only irrelevant, it also proves nothing.

:roll:

Your entire thesis lacks citation. Please verify your credentials and/or expertise on "superiority".

I spent part of the early afternoon at a restaurant on a nearby lake having lunch with my boss after helping set up our classroom. It was great. She doesn't gossip. I never disclosed my condition to her. We get along great now that we know each other better.

As for gossipy peeps, they don't come around me.

You just did exactly that.

I had a little anti-NT bias myself at one point, but then realized that w/o NTs many of us couldn't survive. You're sounding like those radical people on twitter of the new SJW-esque neurodiversity movement, blaming NTs for everything wrong with their life and expressing no personal responsibility for anything. Neurodiversity was dead when those radicals took over. I unfollowed most of them and was blocked by many for not toeing the line. I'm done with it.

NTs are equal, no better, no worse. They have faults, we have faults. There are rude, manipulative aspies, there are rude manipulative NTs. There are judgemental NTs, there are judgemental aspies. Etc, etc, etc.

It sounds like the OP thinks that he can speak for every ND and NT on the planet.

D'ya think? :lol: Seriously, someone will post one of these anti-NT or anti-ND rants about every two months or so, and they're all pretty much the same -- one side is "superior", while the other is "not even human". They used to generate a lot of indignant replies; but now the replies are rather low-key and fact-based.

I'm not interested in the superior inferior debate. I see it this way: We are what we are for life, and we need to accept it and make things as good for us as we can.

Fact is the NT world is geared to make most of us miserable for most of our lives. I believe we need our own schools, our own institutions, hell our own NATION where NTs would not be welcome.
