Imagine a world more inclusive, for them, first, then ask that question. Imagine if the world could be made more comfortable and less traumatic and painful, for them. And there are some who are of that category that do just fine. So do we force them to change too?
As a neuro-divergent person I have two words: fuck you.
I'd gladly take a shot to make my biochemistry change. It sucks. And my issues are trivial compared to autism.
Holy shit, for real.
If I could've taken a shot to make it go away and lead a healthy emotional life I would've done that in a heartbeat. It sucks so much to be around healthy people and know you'll never be like them. I don't resent them, in fact I'm happy for them, but holy shit the envy hurts so much.
I can imagine a world where technology eliminates the need for people to live with life-debilitating disorders.
Yes, let's imagine a world less traumatic and painful, filled with people who don't try to halt technological and medical progress because of personal beliefs.
