I have autism and I am tall.
I have all the neurodivergences.
I have no disability.
I went through the school systems like everyone else. I learned nothing from it, absolutely nothing.
I also tested into graduate school in 4th grade. But they made me sit there. So I could be conditioned. I was sick most of my childhood. I nearly died from epilepsy and chronic illness.

I don't think you or I have a disordered brain. I think we have outlier brains.
I think we have a disordered society.
A society that serves the middle. If you can't fit into the middle you get the consolation prize - die trying to fit.
My family is full of prodigous savants. We are supposed to be the ideal. But that is all lies. In reality we are destroyed in the system. We end up with severe illness and live miserable lives. We take in so many inputs that we understand everything of interest without being taught.
Our systems destroy us because they will not respect or allow for our high sensitivity. The very thing that drives our intelligence is too much of an inconvenience for them to make any changes.
Our lives are inconvenient so we are just supposed to die, apparently. Our system takes it's most exotic pets and let's them languish because they don't fit one size fits all.

I have a podcast where I talk about all the lies of disability and nuerodivergence. Neurodivergents are the Uber creatives. In the right conditions we flourish, create and move the entire system forward.
It's called The Gifted Neurodivergent Podcast.
The most sensitive need to be freed from the system. Because the neurodivergents are actually struggling with the oppression of their somatic intelligence. If we were less sensitive we would be like everyone else and it would not be an issue. But we aren't so we are supposed to just suffer.
I know how take our two different intelligences and use them as one to make creative genius in anyone 2e .
That could be valuable as the world falls apart. But they don't care. They don't want us to upset the way things are.
Because this is NOT about DISABILITY or DISORDER.
IT'S ABOUT OPPRESSION of those who could make great change they can't control.
