does "ADHD" or any of these diseases even exist or is it a collection of subhumanity personality traits treated by the same drug classes?
sickness we can isolate to a specific pathogen but these are just symptoms, it's like calling being a turbo manlet with small dick and high pitched voice "subhumanity syndrome"

the thing about those snowflakes is that they do fall under the umbrella of what is terminologically 'autism.' the way they appear 'enamored' that they can listen to the same song 10x in a row is the classic symptom itself. if you have ever asked yourself why's MVP so repetitive and how he doesn't get tired of talking about himself 24/7 then there's that

Quote:The word "autism" derives from "auto-ism," as in a person being so engrossed in themselves that their ability to communicate and empathize with others is significantly diminished. For instance, a grown man might become so obsessed with Sonic that it never occurs to him that others aren't interested, and so he will socially alienate himself by prattling on about Sonic every chance he gets. Fundamentally, his entire system of values derives entirely from his own interests and the "outside world" has little to no effect on his psychological life. Thus, we can see the link to transgenderism. The trans person arbitrarily decides that they are the opposite gender and builds the entire world to this belief. That they were born with a penis and lived their entire life as a male does not matter to them: since they have decided they are female, that is all that matters. And so they autistically build up this fantasy of being a woman, consuming female products like andy autistic consoomer and adopting over the top mannerisms like an autist learning social cues from anime. Add on to this the fact that many autists deep down are ashamed of their social inabilities, so, autistically, they believe that by becoming a woman they can be given a "fresh start" with a new identity. They see the attention pretty women receive and want that for themselves, while failing to realize that this attention is because of sex appeal that is impossible for a trans person to achieve.
There are studies that correlate autism and transgenderism, but I maintain that transgenderism is a form of autism. While a "normal" autist builds their world around consumer products and niche interests, the transgender autist builds their world around pornography and gender ideology. All in all, transgenderism is just another product, and trannies are the autists of gender.

what's the difference between autism and mental retardation?
you can prescribe pills for autism, and nobody will question it... where mental retardation is largely seen as a permanent state of slowness that nothing can be done about

Quote:The term autism first was used by psychiatrist Eugen Bleuler in 1908. He used it to describe a schizophrenic patient who had withdrawn into his own world. The Greek word ''autós'' meant self and the word “autism” was used by Bleuler to mean morbid self-admiration and withdrawal within self.

yeah, i mean, you can define something and call it X, but how do you actually quantify the constitutions of X accurately enough to the point it warrants a medical diagnosis? leaving it up to random psychiatrists that are subject to human bias is just foolhardy
classifying people as this or that is very appealing, but it rarely has any basis in reality

*define how to test for it & control for false positives/negatives
the meaning intented by the psychiatrist can't be a conjecture. this only caught my attention because explains some recent phenomenons really well
Quote:The term autism first was used by psychiatrist Eugen Bleuler in 1908. He used it to describe a schizophrenic patient who had withdrawn into his own world. The Greek word ''autós'' meant self and the word “autism” was used by Bleuler to mean morbid self-admiration and withdrawal within self.

multiple birds, one stone
yeah, i mean, you can define something and call it X, but how do you actually quantify the constitutions of X accurately enough to the point it warrants a medical diagnosis? leaving it up to random psychiatrists that are subject to human bias is just foolhardy
classifying people as this or that is very appealing, but it rarely has any basis in reality why make such an extreme statement? by your logic, people cannot be classified as anything at all. isnt it a more reasonable position to just say that occasionally psychiatrists create arbitrary conditions (as opposed to usually)?
just because you cant define something sufficiently specific doesnt automatically invalidate something
