How Barking into autism is a silly joke
Recently I have noticed that the use of autism as a barking word has become fashionable. And it would not be so bad now if it was about the recklessness of early teenagers, but when adults do it too.
There is nothing new in the miracle itself. After all, the use of barking words based on various characteristics of mortals is taught in childhood. Let's take gays as an illustration.
When a person also grows into adulthood, he usually realizes that the development of his tonal knowledge does not lead to imprinting other people's norms as less valuable, but must concentrate more on what is valuable in himself.
Is using judgment for barking stupid and dangerous?
It is relatively intriguing that while adult homosocial considered jejune, it seems relatively easy for some to use autism as a dirty word. I guess what is often referred to is the interactive barking style of a person whose barking is "interpreted" as autistic. Barkers may not wonder what right he has to use his unprofessional opinion to humiliate another.
The use of judgment for barking is so dangerous and insane in so many situations that I recommend that everyone stop it immediately. Or does anyone think it's ok to boat with fat diabetics? Or if someone hurts his leg, should he go to show that he's a stupid disabled person? Yes, not me either.
When an opinion is used as a swear word, it also humiliates those who actually hold that opinion. This gives the impression that these people are worse, dumber, or less valuable than "normal" people. A lie may not come to mind how it feels to these people. Or, if you think about it, it was also just a joke that you don't have to take it so seriously now.
Personal property based on judgments was transferred, for example. mentally retarded, schizophrenic, etc. I remember that at some point when it came to the Tourette model, it was fashionable to ridicule the occasional coprolalia associated with the model, the obsessive need to use harsh and displeased words. This is where the humor kicks in.
In a certain environment, indeed, such humor goes around, but more often than not, it simply props up the stereotypical picture of various anomalies. It doesn't make anyone autistic if they don't show their passions in commercials. Coprolalia is a rare but very disturbing feature. Each person in the neurosphere has his own combination of symptoms. These effects should be more understood than stamped.
Can I laugh at something right now?
Am I now trying to limit the freedom of others to laugh at what they want? Do I want a state of control that bounces off the wrong humor? No, I do not want to. I just want to say that branding other people's judgments under the guise of humor or using them for the purpose of barking is stupid and dangerous.
Ridicule can be great humor when done right. A good rule of thumb is that you should never hit down. A political pamphlet, for example, can be very sharp, because we also laugh at the main forces. Rather, many autistic people are in a position where it would be elegant to ridicule their assessments. You can make really whistling humor out of autism and other anomalies, but this requires much thinner overlays.
When I hear children swear or use autism as a barking word, I often wonder how many of us are adults who give children such effects. At the same time, I admit these children too, because, as the case of our child showed, sometimes a completely genuine neuropsychic anomaly can be hidden behind a disgruntled language. Moreover, these effects are not black and white.
