You are,
But its like special relativity.
If you’re moving at high speed through a vacuum, you can equally describe it as you being stationary and everything else moving past you. Science fact.
So relative to your own unique ableness (set of personal strengths and weaknesses) its everyone “normal” that is disabled.
If the majority of people were autistic then being autistic would be the normal and society build to accommodate our diverse needs. A neurotypical stereotype in such world might hit many challenges and struggle instead and they would get the disabled label for it.
Have you been assessed out of curiosity?
i have had my autism certification papers for a while already, if thats what you’re asking.
It's the "relativity of simultaneity" concept transformed into a social domain instead of a spatial one!
Can't believe I've never seen this one with this text before. Makes so much sense. lol
It's a wild ride, comrade
Do I get one of those blue tags?
