>"Is my defectiveness inherent, or is it simply a byproduct of a bad and arguably inhuman environment? And honestly, while the latter certainly exacerbates the issue, I think it’s the case that there’s always been mentally ill humans throughout our history as a species. A human who lacks the ability to socialize well, especially in the days of hunter gatherers, would’ve either been directly expunged from the tribe, or would otherwise amount to nothing more than a ready made meal for a random predator. If that’s the case, then the only reason why nature hasn’t rightfully done away with me yet, all comes back to how the modern era keeps wretches like me on life support, in terms of insulating me from the sorts of outcomes which would immediately befall me without all the security/conveniences afforded by industrial civilization. As it applies to myself, I consider this extremely regrettable, and I would’ve much rather had nature cull someone like me as soon as it was able to. The fact that it hasn’t, has itself only led to a lifetime of emotional turmoil and near endless inner agony. The fact that I’m alive doesn’t do any good at all, given that I lack everything necessary to actually feel the benefits of being alive."

Even the Neanderthals took care of those who were ill or unwell. You dearly loved. Love is the glue that holds us together as living creatures. I mean this sincerely, though it is almost impossible to express through a simple post like this.

Yes, but the state in which we find ourselves is directly caused by life in the modern era. If it keeps us on life support, it is out of some misplaced sense of implicit shame in the knowledge that the reason we cannot thrive in these circumstances is due primarily to its own existence, by which many more are thriving.

Autism is not a mental illness

>> No.20565147

>>20565126
This. There is good reason to believe that lightly autistic minds would have thrived in prehistoric times. The natural world is a world of pattern. Predators and prey act in knowable, predictable ways. Birds fly south for the winter, deer head to lower elevation, big cats are ambush predators. These things and all the vivid detail of nature could have been very, very valuable to humans in prehistory. That these traits have fallen out of favor does not imply their possessors are faulty. It's just that we have outgrown our biology, and are in the interim stages of really, fully accepting it.

Age splits, life grits.

The older that one gets, the narrower the integrational windows become, and the more work is required for virtue; since aging deductionally splits one's wellness anyway, one should precipitate this natural process via surgical splitting —id est: via prudent renovation/adjustment of a vertically innovated equilibrium—, lest the natural splitting reaches one's self, and one disintegrates.

Freedom is like a serene vortex; to the revolutionary pattern of the free is attained the virtuous matter of the structured.

What book is this from? That could be a good opening sentence for one. Very much in the vein of a Houellebecq novel
