with all due respect, i’m not using autism as an insult ..

i’m genuinely asking if you’re autistic because you seem to be socially unaware of what’s going on around you + u hang on every words literal definition instead of properly contextualizing

so you’re either doing it unintentionally (austistic) or on purpose (sociopath)

As a sidenote, you think the vaxxx industry is at all responsible for increases in autism?   I remember my legal father (my bio father was an anonymous sperm donor med student) and my mother are worshippers of the medical industry and believe anything a doctor says.  So growing up, I never missed a doctors appt, a checkup, a shot, and the slightest grevience, even saying “I’m feeling sad or a bit down these days” they would be like “let’s schedule a doctors appt” lol.

And I used to get sick a lot actually. 

After like age 24 my parents insurance on me expired and I’ve mostly been without insurance and poor most of my adult life—and so I stopped going to doctors, I don’t go for checkups, shots, anything.  And the most I will ever take is a rare Ibuprofen.  And I never get sick, thx God 🙏

   3.   Donald Trump:
   •   Donald Trump’s record on race includes multiple instances of racist rhetoric and actions. From refusing to rent to African American tenants to promoting the “birther” conspiracy

Nah, the birther thing was true. They brought in Trump (an actor) to play a role and had him fall on the sword and say it was fake. They did the whole we killed Bin Laden thing right afterward (also bs) and the story went away.

I followed the entire thing and a lawyer from NJ proved that he didn't qualify to run for president. Some people were racially motivated following the case but most were concerned that someone who wasn't a citizen could become president. They just used the race thing as a way to hide what was going on.

He didn't qualify because of the age of his mom when he was born and the amount of time she was said to have been living in Hawaii. She was outside of the range of the law for her to be a citizen at the time he was born, so he wasn't a natural born citizen. Let say she was eighteen when he was born and she lived there two years prior to him being born, but the law said that the mother had to be eighteen and would have had to have lived there three years prior. Something like that, I don't remember exactly but I remember that he didn't qualify due to some age/time technicality. If he was a citizen, just like any of us, he would be able to prove it in a heartbeat. It wouldn't even be a thing. The fact that people had to sue and all that should tell you something. I'm positive if anyone really looks into it, you'll see that he didn't qualify to be President due to citizenship. The same reason Arnold Schwarzenegger couldn't run.

There's nothing wrong with going to a doctor. Go and let them diagnosis you. You just need to decide on how you want to treat whatever problem that comes from the diagnosis. Of course they are going to offer pills, surgery etc. but more than likely there are natural cures and remedies that may be more beneficial to you. It's up to you if you want the doctors to help you or if you want to get outside help. That's where people go wrong. They go to a doctor and then just go along with whatever they tell them. They don't even bother getting a second opinion or even try alternative forms of wellness, which often work best, aren't habit forming and are less expensive.

i do think autism is overdiagnosed and a lot of times exaggerated … in my opinion the medical industry takes advantage of shy individuals who are socially awkward due to their lack of confidence .. it’s a frame of mind which a lot of times has more to do with personality than with an actual medical condition….not sure if vaccines have anything to do with it, but i wouldn’t rule it out.

what’s more racist than all that combined is kamala puttin on a fake blackcent when talkin to black people or talking about washing collard greens while bumping pac in college because she thinks black people are dumb enough to eat up her bullshit


jus sayin

I think we need to address something important here. You’ve spent a great deal of time challenging my views on topics surrounding Black identity, community dynamics, and complex racial issues. However, as you’ve now clarified, you’re not part of the Black community yourself. Instead, you’ve been positioning yourself as an authority on these issues from an outside perspective, without the direct experience or cultural insight that genuinely informs these discussions.

Throughout our exchange, you’ve made assertions about what Black people do or don’t need from political figures, used stereotypes to make your points, and attempted to ‘correct’ perspectives that are far more personal for many people with lived experience. For example, your comment about Kamala Harris and the ‘Blackcent’ or ‘collard greens’—which you claimed was somehow manipulative toward Black voters—relied on an outsider’s caricature of Black culture that trivializes the diversity and complexity within the community. This approach not only oversimplifies the issue but also dismisses the nuanced understanding that firsthand experience provides.

Discussions about race and identity require respect, cultural awareness, and, ideally, the willingness to listen to those whose lived experiences reflect the realities being discussed. By taking on the role of an authority on issues affecting communities you’re not part of, you’ve chosen to overlook the very context and credibility that make these conversations meaningful and productive. Credible insights on complex topics like race, identity, and politics come from either firsthand experience or respected, well-researched sources. Without these, asserting authority on such topics is not only unproductive but can be dismissive of the real experiences that shape people’s lives.

I’d encourage you to consider if it’s constructive to position yourself as a spokesperson on issues outside of your own experience. This type of discussion benefits from listening and engaging with respect rather than projecting assumptions. Meaningful discourse, especially on sensitive topics, requires an openness to learning from those directly impacted.

First, let me be crystal clear: your assumption that my identity somehow makes my perspective less ‘authentic’ is unfounded and disrespectful. Identity isn’t determined by arbitrary gatekeeping or by dismissive comments. It’s shaped by lived experience, culture, and community, not someone else’s narrow view of what it should be. To claim that being biracial makes my perspective less valuable in discussions about race only highlights your lack of understanding of the Black community’s diversity.

You’ve previously implied that you’re not trying to act as an authority on Black issues, yet you’ve repeatedly dismissed my views while continuing to stereotype and make sweeping statements about Black experiences. This pattern contradicts your claim. Having family members of different backgrounds, as you mentioned, doesn’t equate to firsthand experience or understanding—it doesn’t grant you insight into others’ identities or give you license to police how people like me connect with our heritage and community.

Instead of continuing this antagonistic approach, I’d suggest reflecting on the need for respect and openness when discussing topics that are both deeply personal and complex. Conversations about race and identity require sensitivity, not judgment or arbitrary ‘credentials’ assigned by someone else. Moving forward, consider that listening is just as important as speaking, especially in discussions as layered as these.

It’s beyond inappropriate for Sccit, as someone outside the Black community, to declare who or what qualifies as ‘Black enough.’ He doesn't share the experiences of being Black in America and certainly doesn’t hold a monopoly on defining Black identity. Blackness is diverse, and it cannot be limited to rigid definitions or the assumptions of outsiders.

Not only is his comment dismissive, but it also reinforces harmful stereotypes about what it means to be Black. I encourage him to take a step back and reconsider what he's trying to achieve here. Declaring who’s ‘Black enough’ reveals an alarming lack of respect for identities that he clearly doesn’t fully understand or experience.

Given that you’ve mentioned your children are also biracial, I genuinely wonder—do you apply this same judgment to them? This line of thinking, where mixed-race identities are dismissed or scrutinized, can be incredibly harmful.

Turning up the volume a bit, aren’t we? It’s funny how I started talking about Ice Cube, but somehow you’ve escalated to name-calling, personal insults, and racist commentary that perpetuates harmful narratives undermining the validity of biracial identities, much less Black community itself, which has a broad range of identities and experiences. Seems like every time the conversation isn’t leaning your way, the hostility level rises a notch. Maybe take a breather before coming back. The album will still be here.
