i feel like what rubs me most wrong abt a lot of blanket nd vs nt statements is tht for the love of the creators of the universe neurodivergency has no standard behaviour except tnt it's not 'standard' behaviour. so ur shitting on nt for doing whatever n glorifying and exalting nd bc they are the opposite and better and Superior is most times actually just shitting on a human quality exhibited to some degree by a large number of humans nd n nt alike. n the nd subset reading tht are just gonna wrongly feel bad abt themselves. i wld add tht the nt ppl are also gonna wrongly feel bad abt themselves but tht was your goal all along so you already know tht.

#it's very hard to distinguish certain behaviours as explicitly nd when nd is such a wide huge enormous category #so most times it's just coming across as i only recognize asd/adhd as nd #also idk like #as a kid two of my peers had high needs asd n down syndrome siblings #so when those parents were waiting with those siblings for us to finish class #the nd kids wld interact #n it's like it was nvr smooth?#as in were there more or less 'conflict' than 'typical' kids tht age? tht i cnt recall #but was it just all smooth sailing n perfect understanding n interaction between them bc they're both nd? for sure no #like obvi a majority of ppl with a certain nd wld share certain traits which may make interactions among them perfect #as compared to when they interact with nt population #but if u mix said group of nd with another group you're gonna again encounter not as smooth interaction ps #this site is always so ready to shit on stupid tiktok nd claims etc #but all the popular posts made here on the topic are just as silly #cloud nonsense
