It’s equally absurd that nearly all research to this point presupposes that any neurodivergence is purely a medical disorder.

Ironically, this belief that science is purely objective and exists outside a social framework is how we arrive at these types of unquestioned faulty assumptions. That’s how we get homosexuality still being in the DSM as a mental disorder until the 70s.

“Maybe autistic people have some unique strengths” is hardly the most biased or ridiculous hypothesis in modern academia.
