Comment on Mental health professionals rarely allow you to talk about the socioeconomic factors too
FiniteBanjo@feddit.online 5 days agoI think my definition of the word liberal is the classical usage and yours is the colloquial usage, though. Liberal’s bare definition is “an advocate for human rights, freedoms, and liberties as long as those freedoms do not infringe upon the rights of others.” In practice this is not unregulated capitalism because an unregulated capitalism does not respect individual rights, a democratic state must exist to uphold those rights.
Generally, the sort of people I see complaining about LiBruLZ are Tankies: proponents of eastern bloc dictatorships, or Conservatives: proponents of western bloc dictatorships.

Well, that was just about the most liberal dreck I’ve ever seen.
No, I’m using it the way political philosophers use it, which is to refer to a specific system oriented around capitalism and individualism that emerged through European imperialism and settler-colonialism.
Neoliberalism is a useful term if you care about all that intellectual (🤮) nonsense though, which you don’t seem to. Unless of course, you’re about to tell me about some amazing scholarship you read to form this opinion of “yours.” I mean, you know the Latin and everything and that’s like, most of the stuff.

The strangest part about this whole diatribe is the assumption that developmental disabilities or neuroatypicality are even hereditary in the first place. Every race has about 1 to 4 in 1,000 for autism with minute variations between, for example.
If anybody here sounds like a eugenicist it’s definitely you.

This is some echochamber shit for real, I don’t even know what this is meant to reference from my comments.
“I’m not a eugenicist because I use ‘race’ and ‘genetics’ synonymously to suggest that autism isn’t hereditary,” is a hyper-level of self-validating reasoning, so much that I’m seriously unsure if this is an AI that just read “eugenics,” and inadvertently plugged the idea that race is like, a natural thing. “Disabled,” also doesn’t just mean “autistic,” but at this point who knows what the fuck you think you’re saying.
To anyone else who comes across this, is this a not?

If you don’t see how its prevalance across every race defeats the notion of it targeting a specific genetic group then you’re an idiot.
