Oh great someone posted a thing about how “ADHD and autism are only disorders in a capitalist society” again.

Speaking as a person with I say unto you all that this take needs to die. I can’t speak for people but ADHD is difficult in a lot of ways that would still be difficult in, like, a post-scarcity space socialist paradise or whatever!

I find is used as a catch-all phrase for so many unrelated things.

Examples: and are generally part of European and Abrahamic worldviews, and still present if peoples with those worldviews base their economies on other European theories (Socialism, Marxism, Communism, etc).

I still strongly believe what disables and people environmental (systems in society) and not built into the individual.

I find those with European worldviews (Europe & colonies such as CANZUS -- Canada, Australia, New Zealand, United States) are stuck on , which ends up creating a focus on hierarchy and conformity in ways that are opposite to what strong adherents to the ideology believe it does.

That hierarchy and conformity doesn't go away if Socialism, Marxism, Communism, etc are adopted without addressing other issues as well.

On Marx, I find this useful:

I am curious where “ADHD and autism are only disorders in a capitalist society” was posted?

I follow the hashtag, as well as the @actuallyautistic group.

I am curious what specific difficulties you are thinking of? Is it something that you feel doesn't have a systemic basis?

I agree that "Capitalism" is the wrong label for the problematic system.

I'm wanting to think about what environmental/systemic factors might be at play.

I suspect autism is a defense against social manipulation. I suspect ADHD is a defense against the omnipresent commercial attention hijack.
