Why Aspies are abused

Autistics are abused because they can be. We tend to take it until we snap. In other words, we are good targets. In addition, meltdowns can be hilarious entertainment My schoolmates certainly seemed to think so. That, at least, has been my experience. Where can we see this video?

There's a video on youtube with the exact same title
as the title of this thread. Maybe it's that one.
 
Like any marginalized group, autistic folk are a target for people who like to have fun at the expense of those they target.

Being treated like a zoo animal as an autistic isn't all that uncommon for an autistic person to experience.
 
Where there are humans, there are predators. Those who will prey upon anyone they perceive as different, weak or inferior to them. Autistic or not.

My brothers and I were never bullied. They learned quickly do'nt mess with us. We take care of business no talking
over quick.

So did I. But it never prevented predators trying...though usually only once.

I didn't start fights, but I was liable to finish them. Somehow I never ended up in juvenile hall. But then most altercations are all predicated on who started them. Not who finishes them. :cool:

Military upbringing. You always defend yourself with lethal force if necessary. Different times though. These days my parents would probably be sued for my actions, even when entirely defensive.

The one fight I was in on a school bus the belligerent was forced to apologize to me by the school. He was crying when I was finished with him. My older brother was challenged to a fight just pushed the guys head into a cement wall knocked him unconscious left. I'm the runt in the family.
