The neurodiversity movement labels anyone with any of the above listed disorders as "neurodivergent", although people with autism are the main target. They usually strongly oppose "person-first language" (i.e. "person with autism") in favor of "identity-first language" (i.e. "autistic person"), always capitalizing "Autistic", because they treat autism as if it is equivalent to national heritage and as being a major component of a person's identity. They consider person-first language to "accessorize" autism, although they do this themselves by considering autism a "gift" and an "identity" and creating an "autism pride" movement and day. Neurodiversity advocates are vehemently against any kinds of cures or treatments for autism (most notably [[ABA therapy]]), comparing it to [[eugenics]] (and typical of liberals, Nazis and Hitler) and considering it to be abuse in all circumstances, even if the client wants a treatment or cure, enjoys the therapy or makes progress. However, their "activism" only focuses on those with "high-functioning" autism (such as [[Asperger syndrome]]), completely ignores those with "moderate-" to "low-functioning" autism and opposes the use of these labels, although the disorder is a spectrum and symptoms and their severity vary widely across the spectrum.

Neurodiversity, also known as neurodivergence, is the concept that people with conditions such as (but not limited to) autism, ADHD, OCD, dyslexia and epilepsy are not "disordered", but rather have these conditions as a result of natural variations in the brain and that general society are the problem in considering these conditions disorders or otherwise villainizing these individuals. The movement (also called the autism "rights" movement) mainly focuses on autism, although it is not solely focused on such.

Doctrine

The neurodiversity movement labels anyone with any of the above listed disorders as "neurodivergent", although people with autism are the main target. They usually strongly oppose "person-first language" (i.e. "person with autism") in favor of "identity-first language" (i.e. "autistic person"), always capitalizing "Autistic", because it is a proper noun. They consider person-first language to "accessorize" autism. Neurodiversity advocates are vehemently against any kinds of cures or treatments for autism (most notably ABA therapy), comparing it to eugenics (which it is) and considering it to be abuse in all circumstances, which it is. They are not known perpetrators of cancel culture[1], because cancel culture does not exist, and is a made-up boogeyman for conservatives to hide behind. Most if not all neurodiversity supporters support self-diagnosis and some claim to have "diagnosed" their own autism, as most people are able to understand their own psyche to an extent. Many support other SJW movements such as Black Lives Matter and feminism, and it is common for them to identify with atypical genders and/or use neopronouns. This is okay, because it does not hurt you.

Neurodiversity advocates are easily found on Tumblr, Instagram, DeviantART and other social media sites.

Bullying

Neurodivergent individuals are often the target and victim of bullying, such as the brain-dead ramblings of washed-up has-beens and never-will-be's that were on this very page.
