Uh, the allistics should accommodate you though (same way we accommodate them all the time).
Nvm, I can tell you consider Autistics to be infants and infantilize us as a result; perhaps I should just block if you’re going to downplay the oppression that Autistics experience at the hands of neurotypicals as infantile.
Typical reactionary response. I do understand though that autism has not gotten the proper marx treatment yet, at least afaik.
Maybe someone can help building the proper dialectical materialist analysis.
Autism is based on the brain, which makes it real. Outside conditions are what they are and need to be addressed in a non idealist manner.
The first reason why an austistic person is not okay in groups is because they are different from the rest in perception, interests and often opinions and way of presenting them. This gets put on steroids due to capitalism individualizing people and breaking up groups. While that hits everyone, it hits those the most that already have a hard time fitting in.
Where bougois individualism makes the wrong conclusion (eg others need to accommodate us) marxism imo asks us to point to conditions that need changing. The conditions are for example the threat of death due to being ousted by a group. This would not happen in a medieval world for exmaple as the autistics brought a unique perspective and had enough slow time to calm down. This would therefore also work very well in a socialist model as the need for constant maximizing of profit would fall and the constant need for othering would fall as well due to absence of competition.
Anyone with better marxism skills correct me but I think being autistic is going to be very small an issue if we abolish capitalism. I say this hopeful because currently i’m barely able to work due to the aforementioned.
