The website the "Institute for the Study of the Neurologically Typical" existed back in the 90s. Back in those days, it just meant "not on the autism spectrum". People parodied how other people acted to express pride in themselves and of course mock the weakness of others, so as to prove they are the best. Autistics have been using "Neurotypical" to describe the out-group for decades and won't stop anytime soon. It serves a social purpose due to social failures elsewhere that cause autistics to be rather stigmatised. |
