White friends: Reflect
"I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or KKK, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice. Shallow understanding from people of goodwill is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will." #MLK

One reason why many Allistics have a problem with Autistic people, who "don't look autistic" and call themselves disabled, is their thinking pattern of hierarchy and competition. We are "too different" and "too similar" at the same time. They don't want to support someone, who might be even "better" in any aspect than they are. In their view only people who are lower in their idea of hierarchy, who for sure can't be serious competitors are allowed to call themselves disabled and be supported.

And now that we do have Web Components, ShadowDOM, and all the related power supported by all the major rendering enginesโฆmost of the FE web workforce's skills are split between 2 proprietary frameworks (do NOT at me with React or Angular is open source, that's part of their E/E/E strategy). Neither of which plays super nice with Web Components. By design (again, Embrace/Extend/Extinguish).

If the "browser war" (really a DOM argument) hadn't delayed the advent of Web Components for 20+ years, I think the state of FE web would be a LOT better.
How does one distinguish #LongCovid from #AutisticBurnout?
The Paradox of Tolerance disappears if you look at tolerance, not as a moral standard, but as a social contract.
If someone does not abide by the contract, then they are not covered by it.
In other words: The intolerant are not following the rules of the social contract of mutual tolerance.
Since they have broken the terms of the contract, they are no longer covered by the contract, and their intolerance should NOT be tolerated.
Have you recently been dx or become a self aware #ActuallyAutistic human? Do you want to connect with fellow #AutisticAdults that are coming to learn more about their autistic selves? Come join my discussion & affirmation circle next Tuesday!
I'm still learning how to #Fediverse, so maybe this will help another. The screenshot shows the #Fedilab client, and the public timelines that I have added, from 3 other instances.
@mattblaze "you too could buy your way out of trouble" seems to be the cornerstone. You must believe you're a billionaire in potential. That is faith
โIt's just a little thing
Buried in the other things
Burning away, from inside
Would you stay with me tonight?
And there's a quiet dream
I'm not supposed to think
Eating away at my mind
Could you be with me tonight?โ
