I wasn't a gifted kid by any stretch of the imagination, but I've definitely encountered people like this in real life as it relates to autism.

Whew! Us scheming neurodivergents sure had it easy amirite?

Good to see this shit gets taken down quickly.

I let my curiosity get the better of me. Not looking at the removed comments next time.

    Yeah exactly. I think there's some real neurodivergence underlying at least some "giftedness" labels and it all gets swept under the rug with this dumbass name, the kids are never taught how to learn anything that isn't taught, and then because of the name and special treatment they turn out as super fucked up adults. Whole system is garbage.
