No, there is another, yet harder, path. The young need to create and monopolize their voting bloc. They need to deny the establishment the consent of their voice, and form THEIR OWN party. And Yes, I know the DNC and GOP will try to smash this. But we have no choice. WE are no longer represented.

Yeah, "forced socialization" is probably the biggest hill that the general population will die on.

Oh hey, it's me. I'm that guy. Mostly because I'm very shy and don't talk a lot. And because I did a lot of camping growing up, so I know how to keep it lit.

So our rigidity is seen as a threat. We challenge the very measures that keep society organized and coherent. And instead of addressing the issues of our concerns, NT's would rather paint "us" as the problem, rather than tempt the prospect of change. Quite a sad state of affairs.

And this is where the friction comes in between ND's and NT's: ideology vs institution. Autistics don't have a qualm with bucking tradition if they find it morally apprehensive. But Order has always ensured survival for humanity. And institutions are the mediums where resources are distributed.

I think this is where we have to look at how "moral relativism" is baked within the human condition. Namely, how ND's will treat virtues as absolutes, regardless of power structures or hierarchies. But NT's will compromise for the sake of conformity. Being accepted is more valuable than being good

Well I hope the other guy is good with a shovel.

Ppl will be mad that you are simply having more sex than them. Even if you are just a married couple that's open to having a 3rd on their terms, ppl will get super envious over the subject very quickly.

It is indeed a struggle.

Yeah, the whole topic is so emotionally volatile that ppl immediately get thrown into an irrational state when they see it brought up. As someone that's lost $$$$ to scams before, you learn what to look out for Because most scams rely on such heart wrenching vulnerability in order to be pulled off
comment in response to post
Yup, can confirm. But thankfully in all my camping experience the most I saw was armadillos and possums. Yet there's plenty of ticks to give u nasty diseases and venomous scorpions and spiders to give you with hospitalizing bites to worry about.

Caring about something OTHER THAN vehicle traffic in an intersection?! Oh ya, that's far too "woke" for the common English speaking person. Why can't those poor knobs use a car, like a proper citizen?

the democratic party wont win another election until every morally empty careerist responsible for steering it into the ditch for the last nine years has been removed from influence. but losing wont stop them from sacrificing us. fascism is a virus that infects every entity that bargains with it
comment in response to post
Yeah. It's why an education in intersectionality is so important. But other adversarial groups do rely upon "divide and conquer" tactics. And aren't beyond creating bots to sow such divisions where necessary.

Exactly. AI is the latest front of the class war. Just like how the outsourcing of manufacturing destroyed an entire source of income for the blue collar middle class, AI is posed to destroy the livelihood of creatives/white collar jobs as well. Because no job means starvation in Capitalism.

It took me a good decade to get used to it, and learn how to 'triage' some of those time blocks to forgo tasks if I need a breather or start hitting burnout. But it can be done. Just listen to your body, respect your limits, and give yourself grace when you aren't achieving what u feel is expected.
comment in response to post
It's extremely debilitating & exhausting. The only solution I've found is being hyper disciplined about time. It REALLY SUCKS if you aren't used to it. But heavily structuring your time into predictable blocks can help formulate an accommodating structure to lean into.

Wow, so the UK is giving their police force the same leniency as what the pigs across the pond receive? That's quite an icy, slippery slope, to say the least.

Apparently BlueSky thinks your post is rude, lmao. Wouldn't be due to how it auto-generates Alt text with some machine learning of their own.

Someone reminded him that we have more nukes than Russia. Unfortunately, they reminded Trump that we have nukes.

Millennials need to stop taking their kids to these blatant cash grabs. All Disney cares about at this point is exploiting 90's nostalgia when their animation was actually peak at the time.
