Jan 22, 2008 - Ditto on the Wow! Eugenics is a frightening prospect; one on which we should all be vigilant in preventing.

Jan 28, 2008 - i totally relate to the groups listed...and i often wear the Heroes' Helix necklace that i got on ebay, and i concider my self one of them. do you think you could post a copy of this without the music? it is hard to hear what you are saying
ArgonOrb Says:
Mar 9, 2008 - Eugenics happens anyway! The whole evolutionary game is about finding the fitting genes. You can have a one-letter mutation at the wrong place, and you are doomed! Period
ArgonOrb Says:
Mar 9, 2008 - this whole video is unbearable how could any (TRUE) nerdy "Asberger" STAND this EMO-ouzing... muzak and this pathetic reference to sleazy-shitty pop-icons this is just that JUNK a TRUE Asberger's would barf out on the hollow enactment/staging of this colourfool happy "aspie" family is a DISSERVICE to your proclaimed cause (btw: i don't know what these self declared proud "aspie"-s are but an "aspie" proper true and blue would AGONIZE with Mental PAIN from this verbal (self??!!??)-stigmatization)
ArgonOrb Says:
Mar 9, 2008 - i think there is a aspie-hyp in the making and you are part of it it's like with the homosexuals i respect any (wo)man Made this way Gay-pride is unbearable i can't see that Nazi-style reppression that you pathetically make up as a handy strowman yes, discrimination takes place (and it can be cruel and if it is cruel i hate it) but it is NOT a top down thing But inherent in Your competition driven culture and mostly a horizontal thing!
ArgonOrb Says:
Mar 9, 2008 - I wish any Asperger's a silent niche to prosper and grow in. and i wish for Fairness on BOTH sides
Aragonpr Says:
Mar 9, 2008 - I apologize for not fitting your stereotype of a "true" autistic or Aspie.
ArgonOrb Says:
Mar 10, 2008 - you see, "eu-memics" happens to happen also: you utter a somewhat un-pc-thought (in fact a logical trueism!) and you reap the (very expectable) supression reaction (thumbs down) i personally hope we will have an advanced and intelligent eugenics once (one that by far transcends this cruel and DUMB Nazi-style social-Darwinism thing) whereas nobody is in the position to fairly judge on why a blond German should be preferable to... let's say a Jew, should it be possible to come...//
ArgonOrb Says:
Mar 10, 2008 - to a reasonable agreement about what a evolutionary Error IS if you know that the genetic make up of a particular embryo Will cause Suffering to the human it is meant to become... why should one not abort such an erroneous avenue then? If you are autistic, you know that this condition spells suffering. And NOT just because you are the odd-(wo)man-out. You rather will Most PAINfully experience the Absence of certain "mind-modules" you FEEL you Should have Access to but...//
ArgonOrb Says:
Mar 10, 2008 - there rather seems some kind of a gaping void there! Of course will you devise substitutes for them and kind of self-repair, but you still recognize that this is not the REAL Thing! A fair assessment of your condition will leave you no space to wiggle about your being an IndividualStunted. And your being generally on the Brighter Side of the IQ-bench only HIGHTENS your Awareness of this tragic *loss* of some faculties you never had (in the first place)... BUT yet were Meant to have!
ArgonOrb Says:
Mar 10, 2008 - well... you could be YOUR OWN TWIN of course with just those few genetic words extra that Would have initiated and facilitated the advent of those tested and calibrated neuro-structures your peers have got for free! it goes without saying that BORN human life (must) enjoy(s) the full catalogue of human rights! but with the expanding knowledge and bio-technologic savoir faire the rules of the game have to shift accordingly: there Should also be a human right to develop...
ArgonOrb Says:
Mar 10, 2008 - to a FULL State of the Art (asitwere) Human Being with all the faculties and features achieved so far! Now, this is what i would (positively) expect of the future of eugenics (resp. eugenics of the future). As i said: Eugenics happens anyway (since the origin of life itself!)... the only option there is is whether we will have a blunt eugenics or an intelligent and HUMAN version there-of ((my2cents))
ArgonOrb Says:
Mar 10, 2008 - no need to it's rather Me who should apologize for Challenging you with a Polemic (written spontaneously from my Heart and Not entirely Fair (in accordance with what a True(!) polemic is all meant 2 B ;)) judging from your upright (and adroid) video presentations (and Self-presentations) which are rather Prone to Confirm(!) what i figure an "autistic" to be i was lead to believe that you might rather Savour my pointing to some Inconsistencies on your part:
ArgonOrb Says:
Mar 10, 2008 - why would you delve so DEEPLY into the SHALLOW, the Pathetic and the Emotional to make your point?! (((and how come that in your vido diary you mostly come across as a Refreshingly Rare kind of Femine Soberness/Intelligence and fine-tuned sensibilities only to veer into a dramaqueenesque sort of attention-drawing at one of the next few corners?!!))
ArgonOrb Says:
Mar 10, 2008 - ok, i think i might have steered here too deeply into the personal (this surely being not the right setting for that) so: feel free to Erase this sub-thread (my musings on eugenics i would rather have intact please) i think this would not constitute censorship of any kind (i simply would not want to have my effort wasted just like this... so i proceed posting it...)
Yetti0 Says:
Apr 19, 2008 - Same here... I am an aspie; therefore, I am.
Yetti0 Says:
Apr 19, 2008 - I agree... but can you speak louder :) TY aragon
Yetti0 Says:
Apr 19, 2008 - Araonpr..very creative... 5 stars from me.
Yetti0 Says:
Apr 19, 2008 - actually antivaccine loons sound and act like Nazis. Why do you think that NTs are preferable to Auties and aspies? I Love being an aspie.. why do you insist on changing us or getting rid of us like the Nazis did?
adelfred Says:
Jan 8, 2008 - I really mean it, litterally. WOW, this one hit me! You know the lingo!
