or... it's already the default baseline that everything ever written about any chaotic system from humans to frogs to cells to the weather, is already understood to only ever be expressable in any other terms than percentages, averages, generalizations. All facts or observations are already only some percentage. especially for humans, especially for behavior, especially for behavior in humans. It's frankly ridiculous to mention, like any other truism.
You could add a ridiculous qualifier on practically every other word in any statement on any subject, and that doesn't make them go from false to true, it makes them go from useful to useless.
Wow. Do you feel the same way about feminism? Racism? Do you doubt the existence or severity of ADHD, ASD, etc?
In case there was any doubt on that last point, consider that each of those lower lifespan by about 30 years, have ~15X higher suicide rates, and are 1:2 are not able to work full time.
Insults are in the eye of the beholder. For a person with a disorder marked by issues with eye contact and understanding social nuances, imagining insults that aren’t there IS the disability’s effect.
If you comment on how much a black person enjoys watermelon and you do so objectively without malice, it’s still fair for that to be considered a big insult. Why? Because it has been used as a derogatory stereotype for many years.
If you want to understand the perspective of neurodivergents, look up the terms “allistic” and “ableism”.
When anybody hallucinates an insult where there was none, that is their own problem. You can't hold people accountable for offenses they never committed, for insults they never uttered, just because some crazy person hallucinates an offense.
When you walk into a situation that has an intergenerational history rife with 'hallucinations' you don't immediately start talking about pink elephants.
Stirring up a bad situation is not blameless behavior. It's the favorite realm of children, narcissists and saboteurs.
No, it's the same ableist nonsense that's been spewed since at least the Victorian era. If you're not making intense eye contact during difficult conversations you're not engaged, you're weak and undeserving of the respect you deny others.
There are way, way more people who are alike in this way than are blind or deaf. Because it's not visible it's a 'safe' form of discrimination.
