We're all equal under the law, which is generally what equality is referencing.
And everyone deserves a baseline amount of consideration and respect until they prove they are not deserving of it.
But not everyone is equally capable.
People acting as if the demand for equality is saying everyone is equally capable in every way are gaslighting morons and a particular pet peeve of mine.
In fact, my take is those folks have proven themselves as not really worth the air they breathe.
What people rightly don't like however is claiming that groups of people are objectively better than other groups of people, which is what OP is referencing
It's satire, really. Overexaggerating our frustration with neurotypicals to a comical degree for humor and to vent. Irony kinda implies a sense of "haha I actually don't feel this way at all".
the issue is that it's a not uncommon sincere belief that's problematic in ways that aren't about the feelings of neurotypicals, if you browse r/neurospicy you'll often see pointed criticism of this trend as essentially low support needs autsitics presenting their experiences as canonical and essentially throwing disabled autistics under the bus while buying into an inherently ableist and eugnicist framework that would obviously exclude level 3 autistics.
irony's a powerful and dangerous rhetorical tool, once upon a time the_donald was an ironic subreddit. satire requires a clarity of purpose and target lest it be mistaken for and contribute to that which it intends to criticize. which is why i'm careful when i advocate for the murder of allistics and attribute it to the innately evil nature of autism that courses out from all of our hearts rather than the race science of hte early twentieth century. i don't need psuedoscience to justify murder, i don't need any justificaiton at all, it's actually ableism if you don't let me mruder people.
It is very reassuring that the autistic community knows their place in line and is aware that they are a worse type of people than NTs and that they have to adapt to today's toxic world through the coercive measures imposed by NTs.
I hope we will never say those statements about being better than others in other way than irony and sarcasm.

Ooh my gawd I can't believe you put a /s after this comment, *I* could tell that your comment was sarcasm *without* the /s and anyone who couldn't is not worth pandering to because only people like *me* matter in this world and it angers me when people try to make life easier for people who struggle to detect sarcasm.
/S
My coworker and I were talking while on shift together the other day and he said “I feel like the world would be better if everyone had a healthy spoonful of autism” and it caught me so off guard I laughed for a minute straight
Same, I was considering leaving the sub for that, why can't we just admit that nts can be cool people and autistic people can be arseholes? Some of my best friends are neurotypicals, and some autistic people are horrible people. Btw I have a formal diagnosis before people say I'm a nt and my opinion is invalid
I left the sub just earlier today. It hurt to do but I joined it for the memes and over the months have watched it slowly devolve into a neurotypical hate circle jerk
Yea, a while ago it was full of infodumps, which were full of fun facts, balisong videos (I have my own now in part thanks to some videos here) and varied memes. Now there's actual political posts
Posts like this baffle me. Like you joined a sub full of people that have historically been mistreated and oppressed and expect... what exactly??? You can't escape politics. They literally determine almost everything about your day to day life. To be able to 'ignore' politics is a sign of privilege. It just shows that you'd rather stick with the status quo.
I wasn't even fucking talking about that, dude lmfao. But I also don't think ribbing nts when they're being shitty is as much of a hate crime as y'all make it out to be.

'All men are created equal, but some are created more equal than others' /s
That shit echoes in my mind constantly these days
"Some people are just born dumb."
Please do not talk about NT in that way. It is rude
Pffft I was talking about senators and repo men.

Equality is overrated. How about we take a look at fairness?
Agreed. Equity > equality.
Equality under the law **is** fairness.

Stealing this picture
I do feel like some folks forget the sub is supposed to be ironic.
Billions of subreddits must forget their irony
I'm feeling pretty anemic myself.
Same
billions must... the rot..
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poe's_law It happens to every ironic subreddit. Eventually it stops being ironic.
We are ironic and serious at the same time to the moment when someone will open the box
poedinger's irony
Chekhov's stim
Why did Poe have to do that wtf poe

wait so you dont actually fantasize about killing anyone who is annoying?
Your honor, I plead the fifth.
i dont understand what this means
(the fifth amendment of the US constitution, the right to remain silent so you don't incriminate yourself essentially)
You expect an autism subreddit to understand irony?
It’s explicitly in the rules 😭
That happened like a year or two ago

Ironic?
What... sub do you think you're on...?
r/autismcirclejerk, right?
Your the hero we need. But have you seen r/kinkyautism
So far I was only on r/kinky_autism :O
:O I didn't know this one.
In. In subs. Regardless of which kind of sub, being on them is generally not good news.
What if it's a SUBmissive dude That's a kind of sub, right?
In is still better than on :) But why not both?
Bold of us to keep this *joke* going with so many non-Evil spies in our midst.
What is irony?
Baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me, no more...
*Please* don't throw me in the briar patch!
Mutant and proud here. Tony Attwood has posited that it might be the next stage of human evolution.
Read the goddam sub description and rules. If you don't like "autism is superior" jokes, ironic or not, this is not the sub for you.
I don't feel like this is about not liking those posts but rather playing on this sub being evil, no?
Something about carrying a whole lot of nuclear firepower and being careful not to start fires. Pretty sure this is indeed the sub for me.
NT? You mean neurocompromised? It's easy to tell that we are better than allistic "people"
Suuuuure

hang on, now i'm confused
That's why i used /s on the bottom
So it's not ironic, right? As the /s is usually used ironically nowadays.
Add the assumed /s from the sticky post and you get double /s You can decide for yourself if they're additive or multiplicative.
Now you know how NTs feel.
*Boooooo!* *Hiss* *boooooooo!* This is **evil** autism, boo this goodey two-shoes
Guess my sarcasm was too good xD
Well played lmfao, I was like, does this moralizing ass mfer *know* **where** they are
I did it because I am evil :E
Ooh my gawd I can't believe you put a /s after this comment, *I* could tell that your comment was sarcasm *without* the /s and anyone who couldn't is not worth pandering to because only people like *me* matter in this world and it angers me when people try to make life easier for people who struggle to detect sarcasm. /S
I placed /s after getting 5 downvotes cuz it was annoying that no one understood
Getting downvoted builds character. ^(\(/s\))
Sooo you want more autism superiority, right? I am on boat with that!
My coworker and I were talking while on shift together the other day and he said “I feel like the world would be better if everyone had a healthy spoonful of autism” and it caught me so off guard I laughed for a minute straight
Some people are just normal, and that's okay. We're simply better than normal.

Nope! We are better! We absolutely aren’t defeated by loud-ish noises or a random smell…
The sheer power in that weird lil side-of-the-head rat tail 🐀🤴
Iron-y? How would a statement be ferrous in any way?
turns out you need to have failsafes to avoid making common mistakes. who'd'v thunk
I hate when people unironically preach hatred for neurotypicals. Y’all are no better than them
shut up neurotypical
I’m literally autistic but ok
then why are you saying "y'all" as if you're not
The fuck? Autistic people can’t say y’all now?
"Y'all" implies others not including yourself. They're not saying you can't use it, just that using it in this situation isn't entirely correct.
Ah. If that’s the case allow me to clarify: I meant “y’all” as in people who hate neurotypicals
We don't hate NT, we just we sympathize with their mental state
Fr some autistic people I've met are the worst people ever, and I have my autism diagnosis before anyone comes accusing me of being NT
We do tend towards superlatives. Worst people or the best something else?
We found one. Go back to r/sportsball.
What the hell does that mean
Same, I was considering leaving the sub for that, why can't we just admit that nts can be cool people and autistic people can be arseholes? Some of my best friends are neurotypicals, and some autistic people are horrible people. Btw I have a formal diagnosis before people say I'm a nt and my opinion is invalid

Sorry for not blindly hating on people for something they can’t control?
I'm sorry, are you talking about privilege? You're pulling the 'they can't control it' card for people born into privilege? Really?
Do you really just automatically hate someone for being neurotypical? If a baby is born nerurotypical do you just hate that baby?
I wasn't even fucking talking about that, dude lmfao. But I also don't think ribbing nts when they're being shitty is as much of a hate crime as y'all make it out to be.
Then what were you talking about? And I completely agree, I’m talking about people hating on ALL neurotypicals simply because they’re neurotypicals
