You have to understand that I am an autism extremist.
I have had the good fortune to live outside my home nation. I lived in Africa, Algeria. I've lived in South America, Chile. I've lived in the Middle East, Jordan. I've lived in Malaysia, Indonesia.
Autism is not always treated the same way in every society. Having spent most of my life in USA - then living in 4 Islamic nations with Islamic laws - there are very different ways men and women socialize with each other and even behavior around the size of families and how grandparents live or interact with grandchildren.
I am an autism extremist in that I think bullying and abuse of people for different eye contact, hand gestures, language phrasing is bad.

If it sounds as though I am comparing myself to the Savior, let me remind you that all who honor themselves with the claim of being "Christians" should compare themselves to Jesus. Thus I consider myself an extremist for that brotherhood of man which Paul so nobly expressed: "There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus." Love is the only force on earth that can be dispensed or received in an extreme manner, without any qualifications, without any harm to the giver or to the receiver." - #MLKJr Interview in Playboy magazine (January 1965)

Elon Musk is the opposite kind of extremist pairing up with Donald Trump and Vlad Putin and RFK Jr to enslave people they consider abnormal or weak. All of them systemically abuse women and manipulate health care systems to control autism populations / #neurodivergent people
A lot of the problems I have with autism are the same problems people have with attitudes towards religions other than their own. The out-group hate between the Christians, Muslims, Jewish, Hindu, Buddhist, Navajo, etc
I also have lived with Navajo people in North America and studied their rituals and faith systems.
There are attitudes I call #BookSupremacy where people tell me that only the Quran is the one perfect error-free book, only the Bible is the one error-free perfect book. In terms of having diverse thinking systems such as #AssociativeThinking common in #autism ... I find global organized efforts to convince and indoctrinate people that the Bible and Quran are the only "allowed ways of love and compassion" is staring everyone in the face and being brushed under the rug by most.
#Neurotypical people abuse and hate each other for the spoken language (Arabic vs. Hebrew) and both groups will turn and bully autistic people in their own community for gestures, language usage, communications patterns, timing, #EyeContact - things we describe as "autism spectrum" language.
My extremism is that all hate in all places is bad. I've lived too many places and witnessed too much going on across the whole planet.

#The1954Equation
February 28, 1954: "Most people can't stand up for their convictions, because the majority of people might not be doing it. See, everybody's not doing it, so it must be wrong. And since everybody is doing it, it must be right. So a sort of numerical interpretation of what's right. But I'm here to say to you this morning that some things are right and some things are wrong. Eternally so, absolutely so. It's wrong to hate. It always has been wrong and it always will be wrong. It's wrong in America, it's wrong in Germany, it's wrong in Russia, it's wrong in China. It was wrong in 2000 B.C., and it's wrong in 1954 A.D. It always has been wrong, and it always will be wrong." - Martin Luther King Jr.
"For the person who hates, the beautiful becomes ugly and the ugly becomes beautiful. For the person who hates, the good becomes bad and the bad becomes good. For the person who hates, the true becomes false and the false becomes true. That's what hate does. You can't see right. The symbol of objectivity is lost." - Martin Luther King Jr. #MartinLutherKingJr
Year 2013: "They think that God is a tiny, little conservative being who would point guns at people's heads just for going to school." - July 12, 2013. ملاله یوسفزۍ (Swat Valley, #Pakistan )
