Your lack of logic means that you can't prove anything. Next.
GA is the one who needs to prove legitimacy, not me.
You don't see it as a problem that nobody considers your opinions to be legit?
Contempt of the group he claims to represent.
Hardly - most people with AS off the internet share my view on this. I2 or any other online site is hardly representative of people with AS, by any margin.
The AS people I meet in meatspace are not that different from the AS people I meet online.
And the people I know off-line (with confirmed dx) come in various ways. From car-washer, to teacher, to environmental specialist. I don't think I could sell the ideas of yours to any off them. For as far as you have been clear on them, that is.
Are the people with AS that you know off-line representing all kinds of social layers in the UK? Or do they all share your background, your way of using language and your basic ideas on anthropology?
Most the people that I meet with AS agree with me - and would far rather have someone who can get things going forward like myself respresent them, than the likes of GA. I think if you look at the thread on Duncs Drivel, pretty much none of them agree with GA. P managed to even put together a funny video.
Proving what? Pretty much no-one agrees with you here. Should Dunc's place have special status on teh interwebs?
Here's the thing, Hadron, and I don't think I can put it clearer than this: you do not represent me. I'd NEVER approve of you representing me because you come off as a fake, a phoney, a fraud. Someone who talks a lot but delivers nothing. A lot of the bs you post has the feel of a kid who wants to impress his surroundings but because there isn't a lot IRL to show, he fills in what is missing.
GA, on the other hand, comes off as honest and so is off to a good start. I think that whatever makes him and those around him the happiest is the way to go, and I hope there is a happy ending somewhere for those involved. I think he is misguided and I feel sorry for Renaeden, but I also think it takes a lot of guts to be as open about this as GA is.
So I'd rather have him represent "us" than you, because he is honest and I believe he'd have the basic respect for diversity.
