I haven’t got an official diagnosis because I’ve given up on the official sort of human being

my idea is that they say they don’t like evolution because of the past, they don’t want to think of themselves as the offspring of apes - but of course it’s really about the present and the future, they don’t want to know that it’s them making the broken, futureless human nature, they don’t want to break cycles and have to absorb the abuse of their childhood and never “get their power back” (Alice Miller’s language) from their children.
.
My . . . thorough acceptance of evolution tells me that’s exacty what they have to do, but I haven’t been able to convince one of them, let alone all of them. They seem to think they have the freedom to believe whatever they want.

I’ve got the story of the British/Canadian “Home children,” on again, and again I’m blown away by the lengths they will go to to ensure trauma and ignorance and disconnection in the next generation and Britain literally built Canada and the rest of the colonies on it.
.
These enormous crimes upon the world’s Indigenous were perpuated by committing crimes against the colonizing powers’ own children, tearing them out if their lives and families, destroying their psyches and then giving them a homestead, it’s make your place, colonize or starve.
.
It’s a difficult argument to make, group dynamics is built into the majority and growing still, but group dynamics is an Allistic . . . error, there really is no in-group, and almost no-one is getting the “good,” treatment. Again, the reason they see an out-group is because they are abused.
.
Group dynamics is the Allistic usual thought, like capitalism, we are to believe hurting people gives us the good life, we are to believe our life comes from destroying others’ lives but again, it’s not true and despite we are mostly all engaged in capitalism and group dynamics, we are still mostly poor and still mostly living as poorly as our enemies.
.
And again, so the payoffs are not material things, but emotional, feeding a need to hurt, whether it pays off in the good life or not, and again, always, if you wanted to create this need, you would probably hit children.

a New Yorker Magazine sort of cartoon panel, Everyman, you, on the couch, psychiatrist peering over his clipboard, speaking,

That’s more NT psychology, B.
.
Autistics, especially aspie pricks like me don’t “put ourselves down,” we are realistic about our challenges.
.
When I tell you about my challenges around music, that’s not my bad attitude holding me back - that’s more We are All
the Same nonsense that NT people are so sure of - as if everyone is a musician! - that’s me boasting to you about what I can do despite my challenges.
.
When I tell you I’m playing a slide song but I can’t play slide, that’s me bragging about how I’ve figured a way to do it despite my challenges - FFS, can’t you see my hands and haven’t I told you the left one is asleep most of rhe time? It’s a real disability, not some bad attitude so you can make it my own fault and easily solved.
.
Bah, never mind. You know better, of course.
.
Frustrating. 😠

I don’t want to keep railing at that person, I can’t imagine how hard life must be like that
.
but I am making myself laugh a bit carrying on with myself about it
.
I mean, the Autistics who can function and sort of pass, the ones who manage to learn to talk, if the doctors and the parents could actually listen to us when we do, if they would engage with our neurotype when it is articulate, the kids and adults with the biggest challenges, as well as we Daywalkers would all be having a better time of it.
.
The last thing a parent with high needs kids should want to be doing is shutting down the ones with a foot in both worlds, the ones who can tell them how Autistics think. They only want the ones who can’t talk or something?
.
Sorry.
I didn’t know until I started posting that I’ve definitely crawled out from under the wrong side of my rock today.

The majority thinks that people are generally the same, except for some individual differences, of course it’s more complicated than that, there seems to be a majority who are generally the same, but they’re one type, humanity is divided into neurotypes, there are other types that are mostly the same among themselves, so that’s a third layer of complexity, and still there are individual differences both within types and also individual differences that transcend types.
.
It’s another layer of complexity but it’s a better theory, explains more than the other one.
.
That’s why I’m all in on neurodiversity theory, if it explains more, I don’t see that ignoring it is an option.

@autistics #AuDHD #ND #Psychology #NTPsychology #ActuallyAutistic

I think I say this a lot but I am just so incredibly burnt about all the years I wasted listening to my NT siblings parroting their #NTPsychology at me, shaking their heads at me like I’m the one not getting it.
.
I was born knowing that and they weren’t and can never learn it, they know nothing, but they’re going to teach what they do not understand to the person who wrote the book. NT psych is business psych, army psych. It is not humanist or medical, it’s only there to keep you going to work.
.
They spent the greater half of all of our lives telling me something is wrong and guessing about my possible early abuse, they listened to me tell them I had taken the whole idea further and refused to dish out even “normal,” levels of abuse, that I forsook and banned punishment, period - and when my bubble popped, I found out they hadn’t heard or believed any of it, and assumed I had been rough on the kids, despite everything I ever said or did: they couldn’t hear, “no punishment.”
.
It’s not a thing. The NT have no brain path, no neuroreceptors for the negation of punishment. There are probably more aspects to the actuarial function, but that’s part of it and they don’t have it.
.
What of my life they didn’t wasting talking their psychobabble, I wasted trying to tell them not to hurt people and expect things to improve because of it. THAT’s what I understand to be the core idea of lower case “p” psychology.
.
I didn’t learn/figure out until my sixties that there are different brain types and that they don’t all have all the features, and then I finally saw that they just can’t get it.
.
And yes, I pathologize. It’s a problem.
.
Sorry. 💔😇

there's some stuff about identities and being biracial but I don't think there's anything needs a warning. I mean I maybe could have used one, but I think folks are used to it - you'll see in the first comment or two 😬
.
OK, here's the warning: there's all these studies that show group dynamics already at work very early in life, kind of even too early for my wholeview
.
it's all trolling me, so I gotta lotta comments

RE: https://mstdn.social/@archaeology/116942317256778474

My point is, what is the point of trying to show the violence is forever except to justify it today? What good does it do us to think that it’s forever?
.
#Evolution #Psychology #NTPsychology #Philosophy #ActuallyAutistic #ND #AuDHD @autistics

I don’t want to single the person out, and I’m not, believe me, every normal person and most of the weirdos say what I’m about to argue with. I’m borrowing their text, though, it’s perfect, just what nearly everyone thinks.
.
“I think violence is a part of human nature and could never go away. Even if you found a way to stop all physical violence, the human aggression that causes it would still exist.”
.
I have a hard time accepting this, but I don’t think the majority sees anything wrong with that statement. Honestly, I think it’s built in, evolved into the majority.
.
But from over here in Divergent World, what I see is an excuse never to change anything, never to stop whatever is causing the aggression. “It would still exist,” so it is beyond causality, beyond science or thought? Purely a spiritual matter?
.
I’m still a toddler among the adults of Allistic science, having to ask, “Why?,” every ten seconds because, “because of Human Nature,” isn’t a real First Cause, you’re just sloughing your child off - OK, Dad, I’ll keep
it going: why, “Human Nature?” And anyway, when someone isn’t aggressive for thirty seconds, isn’t that, “Human Nature,” too?
.
You have the same answer for opposite questions?
.
But back to the point, the majority is so certain that aggression is natural and proper, causeless and inevitable that they will not experiment, will not learn anything further about it.
.
#ActuallyAutistic #ND #AuDHD #Philosophy #NTPsychology @autistics

my attempt to understand the world has reached a point where it’s pointless to carry on with, it doesn’t mean anything to anyone what I figure out, if anyone had all the answers it still wouldn’t matter, not to everybody else.
.
I got fooled about this “march of human knowledge,” deal, as though we all absorbed everything anyone ever figured out. Oh gawd.
.
We learn it in social mode, we learn the NAME of the person who figured it out, Charles Darwin, Rachel Carson, Sigmund Freud. Darwin figured out evolution (and Wallace, and surely others. Me.), so Darwin knows evolution, everyone else is still talking about Human Nature. Same with Freud. 😠
.
What I have figured out, I know, and so it don’t mean squat and I’ve wasted my life. Ain’t nobody asking me nuthin’ and human knowledge isn’t a thing.
.
Not in NT world. I assumed too much, I give too much credit.Their nations and their laws are still based in ancient Greek paganism.

#ND #AuDHD #NTPsychology #Philosophy #ActuallyAutistic @autistics

Me, coming back with my bullshit (LOOOVE that meme):
.
when an animal, humans
included experiences
abuse, or perceives abuse, they are unhappy about it, displeased, upset, perhaps angry.
.
This is not “Autistic rigidity,” rather ignoring this obvious fact is Allistic rigidity, it is they who are not rolling with what is real,
not working with this fact of life,
not changing their methods due to the reality on the ground.
.
The entirety of the Human sciences supports this simple
causality and the only counter argument people have against it is denial, they don’t want it to be real, so they say it isn’t and try to make everyone agree with more abuse. Unfortunately, this is working.
.
They have hijacked their environment and so diverted their own evolution, and many today really cannot see this truth, this core actuarial truth, that abuse changes people.
.
The whole idea of law and punishment ought to have dried up and blown away with Wallace and Darwent, the idea that the same stressors work forever, that the animal doesn’t ADAPT to law and order belongs in a pre-Darwin world. Punishment would only ever do what they hope in a static, never evolving world. Do I have to remind you, crime has not ended?
.
People adapted and evolved instead of learning what the punishers wished to teach. They even adapt to prison.
.
“Rigidity,” is just what one neurotype says about another. It only means type is real, that people cannot be talked out of their evolved thoughts.
.
My point in it all is that your evolved thoughts are like what the Russian fox farm showed: change the phenotype, select for
something, you’re likely also changing the personality, the brain and the thoughts. The supposedly regrettable Human Nature is being unregrettably selected for, and humans are doing the selecting themselves.
.
So in theory, things could change. Sigh. So far, only in theory. My experiments were
futile.

#ND #AuDHD #NTPsychology #Philosophy @autistics

I need something to think about and something to write but I’ve run out of anything remotely possible.
.
I think I said this already, I’m obsessively trying to imagine how to show NT people the trap they’re in, but how to demonstrate, how to prove anything, the whole problem is they can’t see the proof in the first place.
.
I’m looking for an analogy, cases where they can see other species inability to perceive or process, like the way wasps cannot find the open hole they entered the trap by to get out again, the way some herds or flocks can get caught up following one another to nowhere in a circle.
.
Of course it falls apart, you can’t explain that first trait to the wasps or the second one to the turkeys. There’s a world of shit you can’t explain to me too.
.
What I’m trying to express about myself in all this is my own shock at my own awareness of what I can’t seem to explain. I would like to somehow impart how R-worded people seem to be regarding causes, how I hear them say, “human nature,” like the low IQ aliens in Hitchhiker’s say, “Resistance is futile,” or like the gulls in Finding Nemo say, “Mine?”
.
I see that expression, “human nature,” as an anti-intellectual rule, the one and only thing the totalitarian state insists can be said regarding people, any causality is some kind of treason. The slogan for a regime under which no self knowledge is permitted.
.
“I hit them but it doesn’t HURT them,” is R-worded. That’s what hitting is for. If you don’t want to hurt them, why are you hitting them? If it doesn’t hurt them, what’s the point? Where’s the deterrent?
.
It has consensus, but it looks really, really bad to me, logically. Like they don’t understand a word they say. I sprayed water on them, but I didn’t WET them. Something isn’t working there, rather, sense isn’t allowed in to human life.
.
Sorry, FWIW
