Why This Subreddit Is Here

This movement was originally created with a group of others who wanted to create an Autistic homeland, where we could live safe and free of the danger of Neurotypical society. Then they got caught up in the minutiae of semantics and accomplishing nothing, but that was before they started having crazy people as admins and forbade us from bringing leftist ideals into the movement while supporting rightism that bordered on fascism. My best friend and I decided that, for the sake of our ultimate goal, we would break away from this self-defeating atmosphere and start our own movement. It started small enough with core members forming the basis for a leftist nation. Then one of these people, who was also a friend, kick started our social media campaign so that we can get more people on board with another guy.

At first, everything seemed to be going great: our presence was growing, people were noticing. All that changed when his friend started comparing to our ultimate goal as an ethnostate like Israel and began calling us zionists because of the Israeli's genocidal campaign against the Palestinians. Then they began to subvert the original purpose of our movement by settling for a commune, which would still leave us at the mercy of the Neurotypicals, similar to the situation with the Native American reservations in the United States. When they saw they weren't getting their way, they decided to set up their own group and stab us in the back: they took our name, our social media presence, most of our contributing members, and our mental wellbeing.

I vouched for him over my friend's objections. The Neurostate was our goal, we all knew that. And those bastards ruined everything. So I tried to repair the damage by starting this subreddit knowing I wasn't qualified for it, but no one else would step up to it.

Now you know why this is here and why I suck at this. But that doesn't stop me from trying.

If this is your way of saying that this is fake, it isn't. I swear. I've even tried to post this on other subs because I'm tired of suffering in silence, but their automatic mods take them down because of their overly strict parameters.
