I’ve read about how it’s typically difficult for adults with autism to remain employed, and I can completely see why. Never been officially diagnosed, but I’m pretty sure it’s a foregone conclusion in the way that I constantly over analyze every action taken by my co-workers and supervisors

So yeah there’s definitely some ND thought here, but I also can’t seem to get past how fake everything feels. And it feels like I have to play along with their little game where they all assume different personalities between the hours of 9-5 instead of being themselves. Because contrary to popular belief, individuals aren’t beneficial to capitalism, drones are

I hate my brain

    That 'greater simplification' is really something you're undermining. If this was true the most awful views of class would be true and the lower classes are simply lower due to their lack of social sophistication. Get that shit out of here.

                So....you couldn't take a pandering, competitive position to get ahead and benefit yourself as an individual?

                    "nah. under capitalism, you can always take a pandering, competitive position to get ahead and benefit yourself as an individual, but cooperation with people in the same class position is a significantly better route. unfortunately, capitalism’s hegemonic position makes solidarity seem like a non-option to most people."

                    So if you feel.like being at all ruthless it's just easy street and there is certainly nothing else in play. This is just grindstone mentality but saying it's bad. It's also just a fantasy.

                        Seems to be the statement made by what I quoted which was the post I replied to.
