I find it amusing how India is always present in LinkedinLunatics. I need to bring some Brazil here, but I'd need to translate and some bullshit are not that easily translated lol

It's very important to give context on the diagnosis. Any psychiatric diagnosis is heavily tied to its historical context. Autism as a diagnosis was not the same in the 1970s with the first DSM as it was in 1994 with DSM-IV and we didn't talk about spectrum until 2013 with DSM-V. "Back in our day we called that an engineer" that's because some things that are listed as disordered were not a disorder back then.

But yes, I get your point that while some would be put in institutions, others wouldn't be seen as disordered. I should have given it some thought before my comment.

I think that some of my reluctance with OP is that not all autism in the past was the "quirky engineer" one, there were already people being severely abused for a condition that didn't even have a name yet.

Intelligent commentary on Communism is one thing, lunatic gibberish is of course going to be downvoted.

Of course he isn't, but he was a huge part at the start and the project as a whole still has Dorsey's ideas all over it.

What exactly a website related to Jack Dorsey has anything to do with Communism lol

I know this is just a meme but autistic people were probably less seen as eccentric, cute and quirky; more likely put in mental institutions where they were abused and in some cases killed. :/

Of course I know many doctors genuinely want to help people, but also it was not meant to be a deep comment there.

I do have a lot of bad experience with my country's physicians, though, and it would take a lot more than a Lemmy comment to explain. I reckon it is a Brazil thing, though. Don't know too much of how it is outside here.

It's all a part of the same problem, only with distinct presentations. Earth as we know her dies, we die with her. US as a whole do play an enormous role at this chaotic scenario because of its war machine and the cancer of american way of life.

We're killing Earth for this, good to know

It's the wet dream of the average physician: to gain money and prestige without the need of touching another gross sick human.

Well, I guess she did the same! Truly Christian people
