origin post going to second thread

"because obviously my rabbi thought it was legit lol and like
oh no wonder he doesn't wanna talk to me over texts and shit to discuss our differences in opinion about israel/palestine, he believes everything he read in that book about social media
‪[quoteskeet contents would be here again but i ran out of alt text characters and the quoteskeet was already in the full diagram alt text]
like honestly, if he needs to be able to speak to a person and see them, i could record a video message. i could script it, record it, send it. if that's how he needs to communicate, i can do that. if he prefers to respond via video too, fine. i would ask for a transcript too tho.
quoted post: obviously if i don't say anything we won't get anywhere. but i also feel like we're not gonna get anywhere with this discussion anyway so i don't think it's worth opening a new can of worms. it would be nice to clear everything up but i wish in-person was not default when we have technology.
we literally have *so many* ways to communicate these days that accommodate *so many* different disabilities. i think it can accommodate people who need in-person communication without making it more difficult for those of us who don't find in-person "natural" because we're not neurotypical
literally in-person is exhausting and mentally taxing to me.
phone calls are exhausting and mentally taxing.
texts i can do all day.
i'm willing to make sacrifices to my needs for better communication. i do it all the fucking time, without being asked, because society is built for neurotypicals.
i would just like, if i am going to be discussing a thing that i feel very strongly about, that i truly want to have an impact upon a person, that i want to change someone's mind over, for that person to make sacrifices so that i have the best opportunity to communicate the way i am most comfortable

another thing i remembered i wanted to mention on here re: yom kippur is that the rabbi brought up the anxious generation by jonathan haidt in his kol nidre speech and asked if anyone had read the book, or an article about the book, or an interview...
and i wanted to mention @ifbookspod.bsky.social
thread:
as an aside like i feel that *asshole* neurotypicals (not the cool ones, the assholes) will absolutely make it a huge deal that oh look at this autistic person, they can't fucking have a normal in person conversation! in-person communication is the most natural method of communication! etc etc
the thing is that's the "quiet" ableism too
"in-person communication is the most natural method, it's the first type of communication we developed" etc
fuck OFF
if it was so perfect we would have fucking stopped there
we did not. we have other methods. let me use them if they work better for ME.
