I wasn’t a gifted kid by any stretch of the imagination, but I’ve definitely encountered people like this in real life as it relates to autism.

Whew! Us scheming neurodivergents sure had it easy amirite?

Good to see this shit gets taken down quickly.

I let my curiosity get the better of me. Not looking at the removed comments next time.

    This neurotic keyboard diarrhea is a prime example of a beta who goes online with implicit intentions of externalizing mental trauma derived from their own personal failings, toxic masculinity, and a general lack of critical thinking which comes with being a reactionary cuckservative.

    Trash like this who view “the real world” as paradoxically both a just vehicle to punish individuals who do not conform, and a difficult, unfair place to be, would ironically be shot in a more civilized society for such anti-human views.

      This is such a wild comment. It combines alpha/beta discourse, psychoanalysis, a single really clear insight, and chapo style violent edge. This comment belongs in a museum or something.

    Kettling kids in a room for hours doing busy work, then deciding which ones are worth of the programs where you’re treated like you have potential?

    Cool cool cool.

    For me it’s like, you are “gifted”, you do good at school, you know more than your peers, you process information a bit faster and then what? The schooling will catch up with your “gifts” and you will either adapt quickly, slowly, or not at all.

      i aced literally any standardized test thrown at me in high school, but get to college and they want you to write two pages? i couldnt complete a single assignment and dropped out.

      parents pushed me so hard only seeing the speed i was moving at, when only i could see the brick wall i was speeding towards, and i didnt dare express concerns because it would only land me with more accomodations i didnt need and wouldnt use but would make me feel more alienated from my peers.
