@punishmenthurts @autistics "Stop giving me quotes. Can’t you speak for yourself?"

I didn't invent the #English language and I don't live in #Egomania #SelfCentered hate everyone who isn't my autistic type attitude.

I traveled of my own initiative and cost to live in Cyprus, South America (Chile), Middle East, Africa, (Algeria) Indonesia, Malaysia and didn't just hide that the air and water we all share on planet Earth isn't just me me me me. Even my own North America #homeland I have lived in over 30 cities in an RV for decades.

Why would I avoid far better teachers and writers? It's so self-centered to fixate on your own language patterns and native language from the current meme-speak #Mastodon culture.

.

How many times have I pointed you to Canadian Marshall McLuhan? "Can’t you speak for yourself?" I'm not using #Oral #Spoken at all. Are you #HearingVoices ?

"An individual has not begun to live until he can rise above the narrow horizons of his particular individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity. And this is one of the big problems of life, that so many people never quite get to the point of rising above self. And so they end up the tragic victims of self-centeredness. They end up the victims of distorted and disrupted personality."

"Now the consequences, the disruptive effects of such self-centeredness, such egocentric desires, are tragic. And we see these every day. At first, it leads to frustration and disillusionment and unhappiness at many points. For usually when people are self-centered, they are self-centered because they are seeking attention, they want to be admired and this is the way they set out to do it. But in the process, because of their self-centeredness, they are not admired; they are mawkish and people don't want to be bothered with them. And so the very thing they seek, they never get. And they end up frustrated and unhappy and disillusioned." - #MLKJr

"You’re Autistic, aren’t you?
You think your guys were, McLuhan and Campbell?
.
Even if they were, they are drawing upon and interpreting a world of thought that post dates truly ancient thinking and predates the modern discovery of neurodiversity"

RE: " discovery of #neurodiversity " #NeuroDiverse

The DISCOVERY is VERY OLD. #Language #Communications

>>>>> Marshall McLuhan #Canadian is everything about ALL FORMS of communications. Not just oral, not just hand gestures and body language eye contact ( All #Autism issues ) - but ALL forms of communications. Writing, audio, electronic, etc. <<<

RE: " discovery of neurodiversity "

The #Metaphor of The Tower of Babel story is recorded in Genesis 11:1–9 - in the #Torah is #BrainDiversity the experience of people not being able to translate #BrainToBrain

"The Tower of Babel story is between 2,500 and 4,200 years old, depending on whether you are looking at the written date, the estimated time of the events, or the broader ancient oral traditions."

This is describing #MindBlindness and other #AutismSpectrumDisorder diversity #ADHD #ASD

It is not a modern concept, and people killing and murdering and war with each other over brain to brain #Egomania conflicts is not new. Husband wife murder-suicide, etc over language #Ego conflicts.

#CrisisOfNotUnderstandingNeilPostman /\

We are in a massive #egomania crisis in USA because adults of all ages can not distinguish Twitter fiction "memes" from nonfiction serious books printed on paper. We have lost our hearts and souls as a nation to dumb-think Tweets. Trump is a symptom. #RescueDonaldTrumpAndFriends

“In America, everyone is entitled to an opinion, and it is certainly useful to have a few when a pollster shows up. But these are opinions of a quite different order from eighteenth- or nineteenth-century opinions. It is probably more accurate to call them emotions rather than opinions, which would account for the fact that they change from week to week, as the pollsters tell us. What is happening here is that television is altering the meaning of 'being informed' by creating a species of information that might properly be called disinformation. I am using this world almost in the precise sense in which it is used by spies in the CIA or KGB. Disinformation does not mean false information. It means misleading information — misplaced, irrelevant, fragmented or superficial information — information that creates the illusion of knowing something but which in fact leads one away from knowing. In saying this, I do not mean to imply that television news deliberately aims to deprive Americans of a coherent, contextual understanding of their world. I mean to say that when news is packaged as entertainment, that is the inevitable result. And in saying that the television news show entertains but does not inform, I am saying something far more serious than that we are being deprived of authentic information. I am saying we are losing our sense of what it means to be well informed. Ignorance is always correctable. But what shall we do if we take ignorance to be knowledge?” — Neil Postman, Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business. Year 1985. Page 107.
