Personality and lifestyle-wise, I’m way too liberal for the communists. Beliefs, values, and ideals wise, I’m way too communist for the liberals

I’m hardly interested in the “stereotypical” autistic culture but I’m also way too autistic for allistic people

Don’t fit in with white people at all but also don’t fit in with my racial group because the way they live out their identity and culture is purely through liberal consumerism. Also, EVERY young Westerner is a white supremacist to some degree, even ALL the minorities, unless they’re a far left communist

Too bourgeoisified to fit in with most working class but I’m also way too class conscious and radicalized to fit in with peers of the same socioeconomic status

Not queer enough to fit in with the queer community and much too queer to fit in with cishet people

Honestly, I was infinitely happier when I was living life as a fully masking cishet liberal. I actually felt a much stronger sense of belonging back then. The more I learn about myself and try to live true to my heart, the more and more I suffer

I want to go back to when I didn’t know anything about the world or myself.

    I do enjoy the finer things in life as well. However, I still advocate for the balkanization and demilitarization of the USA. When you say you don’t ‘fit in’ with other people, do you mean in terms of making friends or acquaintances?

    Not judging but maybe its a “you” problem ? Like I have a friend that I would consider an average progressive / socdem. I think all billionaires should be shot … he doesnt think so. That doesnt stop us from being friends though.

      Well yea, I think my post pretty clearly implied that

      And yes, I mean making friends and acquaintances

      I had absolutely no issues with that back then when I was masking my autism, tried to fit in with well off liberals, and thought I was cishet

      But now I’m trying to become friends with people completely outside of that demographic and it’s hard for the aforementioned reasons in the post and other comments

        Hmm I dont think I have any real advice. Im usually pretty good at getting along with people outside of my comfort zone. Even getting friendly with them. Like im queer but all of my friends except 1 guy are just cis het.Then again I can see it being difficult getting close to people that run in different circles.

        Either way - Good Luck

        I did like your Donghua Jinlong’s Industrial Grade Glycine post btw.
