Why not return to before Israel was stolen from Palestine? Because too much has happened since. Israel was created, then its citizens stole a lot more, and have carried on doing so, until we have what we see today: Israel now controls more than 90% of Palestine. ๐คจ

Diagnosis delivers a vocabulary, and the understanding to use it. ๐
Even a walk in the park costs money for fuel to drive there, then there's the (paid, probably poorly) work involved in constructing and maintaining the park, and your car, and so on ad infinitum.

Good points; all true. But we have intentionally monetised our whole world, to the point where any/all significant events that take place involve a financial transaction, direct or indirect. 1/2

I think I'm fair to observe that all of the problem with autism or ADHD stem from NTs, their reactions to us, and total lack of tolerance or understanding? ๐ค๐คทโโ๏ธ
And the saddest thing of all โ changing the subject wildly! โ is that all that education is to turn them (all of us) into productive money-earning drones. Those who cannot contribute to Capitalism are 'helped' until they can (or left to rot, in some countries). ๐

It is after all in the US. 65% of adult Americans have NEVER voted against The Rapist. The had 3 elections to get it. They just happen to get off on racism, guns, enriching the already rich and of course they just love sexual assault. Only 65% of the adults, but anyway...
24.01.2026 11:59 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 1 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0It's wrong that these posts have been moderated. You seem only to be publicising the plight of those with ADHD, etc. I reported one of your posts, to say this ๐ to the mods. ๐
24.01.2026 11:59 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 1I donโt think thatโs the problem. ADHD is STILL under diagnosed in the UK, and early intervention really really helps. And a neurodiverse diagnosis (including autism) isnโt so much โpathologisingโ as a way of identifying challenges and solutions.
24.01.2026 10:40 โ ๐ 8 ๐ 2 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 1Are there really "effective interventions"? It's my impression that autism & ADHD need no 'therapy', but only tolerance & understanding from the (NT) majority? It's the universal #rejection that really causes the problems, I think. What do YOU think?
#AuDHD [diagnosed aged 63: no "interventions"!]
This is so important and so often overlooked. Early intervention makes a *huge* difference for a range of conditions, including ADHD and autism.
Itโs a *good* thing that parents are aware of this.
Is it just that you "observe" different things, perhaps in a different way? OK, you miss what they see; do *they* see what *you* see, or do they miss it...? ๐ค๐
