I did not find the comment offensive in this case. Just distasteful and contemptible. Had it been made by a reasonable person, with a degree of empathy towards others, I would have found it highly offensive. As it is, it is just typical of the poster in question. In fact, I am surprised that the description did not includes words such as "Neanderthal", "Idiot" and "Green Taliban". |

My thoughts are that what you say about the special abilities of autistic people and those within the Aspergers spectrum is true - where this poor girl is being manipulated is by her parents who cynicaly use this. If she was just any ordinary 16 year old - our old fridge magnet would apply - it says:- “Teenagers please leave home now whilst you still know everything” Whilst this 16 year old is focusing on Climate Change - 16 year olds where I live are looking forward to a long hot summer, a package trip abroad and getting their driving licence as soon as they can. |

Yes well - personal abuse is your trademark it seems so forgive me if I simply sigh in slight despair of you and move on.

In my view you wrote those two sentences in different context, apparent by the correct grammar principle of separate paragraphs. It seemed innocuous to me, I was not offended in any way and I don't think an affected individual would be either. What I would be offended by is some of the replies in this thread and of course the name calling is extremely objectionable.

And no worse than your trademark of being an opinionated know all on anything and everything who will never countenance anyone else's opinion ever. And a patronising one at that as well. Go to some googling for the next topic you feel the need to hijack. Have fun.

I take no offence, Phil. Being put on the ignore list by yourself should be a cause for some self reflection and possibly celebration for the extraordinary achievement. I just wish I had known at the time. Last edited by MSS; 28th June 2019 at 11:38.. |

The debate on this thread has been pretty reasonable- up till now.
I really don't want to have to close this thread - or any others for that matter. Perhaps ALL concerned should think about what they are posting before hitting the submit. |
