That post seems to be missing.

It's not called Asperger's anymore. And you are, in fact, an idiot. People with these conditions, like myself, and NOT good at concentrating our attention. We're shit at controlling it, which sometimes causes it to fixate.

Also, did you know the cashew nut isn't the main edible part? The fruit is much larger and delicious, but doesn't survive exporting.

You should know something this basic if you're going to post about it... It's just part of ASD now, not a separate diagnosis.

I'd say that removing Nazi-era misinformation is pretty important, actually.

Your tone is patronizing.

For lack of a better term let's call these people "wizards".

The better term is "people". We are in all the facets of society. Though we all want equity I don't belive most of us wish to be treated too differently then nerutypical folk.

I'm not going to rag on you. It seems this is a pretty unpopular post. But the world's still learning as are all of us here. I only learned about the Aspergers thing recently myself so certianally can't blame others for not knowing about it.

Also I understand what you may be trying to say here. I actually knew a really wonderful educator and former CEO. He give frequent talks to the tech industry pushing for improved hiring practices and working environments for nerutypical workers. He show the benefits and helped myself and many others get into the industry.

But the language your using is probably putting folks off a bit. You can speak to us like normal people. I've lost count of the amount of times somone calling me a "wizard" was trying to manipulate me. I am sure I am not alone in that.

This will likely gain more traction in a Pagan/ Neopagan or magick community.

Sure, maybe they're good at concentrating their attention. Concentrating it into a laser that you can't aim or turn on or off at will. It's just a randomly-firing laser of attention that is blasting everywhere you don't need it to. Great super power. /s

this kind of stereotype is frustrating.

people that believe it see me as some sort of performing monkey.
