You seem to be missing the point of my analogy. I don't have a bicycle frame. I have a car frame but only two wheels

If I had meant bicycle or motorcycle I would have used those words

I chose the analogy that I did because it best illustrates the struggle that I feel internally watching other people operate and live their lives normal lives

For a very crude analogy, you can imagine a normal four wheel car as nuerotypical.

Just because I have learned to balance a two-wheel car through sheer determination and willpower does not mean that I don't notice that I'm missing two fucking Wheels. I'm just exceptionally good at masking deficiencies as I drive from a to b and not letting people notice as my overdeveloped other skills can be used to compensate .

All that high functioning means is that I am aware of what society expects me to do. Manually take corrective actions to meet expectations and maintain appearances constantly. It's tiring. Draining exhausting.

I'm not going to defend Bill Gates and say he's a great guy. But I will say that he regularly gives away massive amounts of money and funding to those in need, unlike Elon... So per chance maybe we shouldn't be as dismissive of someone in that position that is not entirely out of touch with reality. Elon could feed and clothe and medicate more than Bill but does not.

For my understanding, this is English into simplified Chinese into Japanese into Korean back into English

Fyi. Some of it is copyright struck out and the screen is black but most of it should have visuals

Honestly, it's probably easier to find on Chinese YouTube than normal YouTube

Roses are red

Violets are blue

Sometimes a lesson is not true

Sometimes our teachers lie too

Respectfully, there isn't much to get. You have been othered by them. They do not see you as a person. They do not see you as someone deserving respect or compassion. Their lives are shitty and empty and you an easy target that can be harassed and humiliated in order to make them feel better about themselves.

Just wondering as an American watching the EU pool resources and mostly work for the same common goals over my lifetime.

To clarify, I'm not saying that this would be a part of the United States of America, but a separate world power.
