    I suppose I have higher expectations than simply something that works for the majority - in truth, I suspect that a society that is ideal for cishet nuerotypicals is literally incompatible with one that is ideal for queer nuerodivergent people. Being a queer nuerodivergent people myself, I naturally want to prioritize the well-being of my ‘people’, much as nuerotypical cishet people invariably prioritize the well-being of themselves as a group.

    This is why I, in truth, think the only actual solution to this problem is separation and complete autonomy. Even then I am suspect of cishet nuerotypicals allowing such communities to exist - they will always have overwhelming economic power just by numbers alone, it would be very easy for them to acquire coercive control over such an enclave ‘for our own good’ even under, say, an anarchist system.

    In truth, I don’t really hope at all. It seems the fate of people like me to always be ‘outside’, regardless of the social organization of the majority - it’s just a matter of exactly how bad it is.
