Neurodivergence
A community to unite neurodivergent people.
A common problem for neurodivergent people is being bullied and ostracized, not only by neurotypical people but also their fellow neurodiverse humans.
Sentences like "I'm glad I only have ADHD, not autism" or vice versa is very detrimental to our collective benefit. Therefore we believe that we should abolish any oppressive/stigmatizing language against other neurodivergent people.
Disclaimer: This is a nonviolent community and we don't want anyone dumping on other people, period. Be it neurotypicals/allistics, etc. We accept the occasional joke (like "allism, a common disease") to highlight the absurdity of pathologizing neurodivergence.
Our rules are vague because bad actors will circumvent clear cut rules just barely and grind the edge.
The rules
- No abusive language
- Stay on topic (no politics or religion)
- No slurs (including the R word)
- No isms (including but not limited to: Ageism, Racism, Apologism etc)
- No Advertising for profit (ND resources are ok if non profit)
Further rules will follow when deemed necessary.
