This feels like another recycled playbook: take vulnerable people, create doubt, then sell it as “concern.” People deserve support, not weaponized stigma.
But supporting people is hard and I don't want to do it. Why do that when I can just exploit them instead?
But how come?
Supporting people is rather easy actually. Being compassionate, caring and listening the other person and being supportive is generally rather easy and oftentimes just words are enough to encourage or console them. That stuff is so easy it can be even faked on autopilot without any effort.
But at the other hand, taking advantage of others/exploiting them just feels bad and even if it's possible to get used to it. It's kinda exhausting to constantly look over ones shoulder for the inevitable repercussions from the person being exploited and to avoid being exploited by anyone else?
Even if taken from the perspective of trying to exploit people. Helping them become better is a more profitable long term investment.
"I thought I was autistic. It turns out I'm retarded."
This is my darkest fear.
But you could end up on a Netflix dating show, so that's cool.
Coming this fall. Retarded dating.
Holy shit, it actually exists. It's called "Down for Love".
I thought it was Love Island.
SHOTS FIRED
It's funny since if you think you're autistic and it turns out you're not the consequence is literally nothing; your life continues the same as it was before.
Also let's be honest; Christina Buttons is 100% an AI generated character.
Names and addresses.
abigail (the person below, philosophy tube on nebula & youtube). did so on her video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_S5w18sjYLk
so many companies/entities mentioned are headed/linked to the same bunch of people. I watched it few weeks ago, sorry couldn't specify the timestamp. but also heads up, 2 hours video.
Well what are their names?
Yeh this is not doxxing if they are literally attempting to shape national policy. If you want to be left alone you should leave the fucking laws alone
They are a clear and present danger to people and must not be spared criticism and shaming for their actions.
