Hate to break it to you bud but some people are responsible for the problems they have in life.
Some people have shitty circumstances and put forth effort to overcome them. Some people have a hiccup and use it as an excuse to beat themselves down and the people around them. An alcoholic that beats their kids may have had a shitty life but we don't pull the "society needs to change" card for them.
we don’t need to improve
No, everyone should be improving. That's the point of life if there ever was one. You get sucker-punched, you fall, try to get up, you fail, you slide backwards for months on ends, but you still try to improve.
society needs to change
For things like ASD and ADHD this is true but ultimately meaningless because it implies that society can change without individuals doing something. Workers get fucked over by their bosses and that needs to change. We don't sit around waiting for some magical force to intervene, we unionize and organize. Do you think that one day NT folk will suddenly change and understand us? Or are you content to accept that we'll be misunderstood for all of human history?
It's fine if you do think so. I'm not here to impose my will. But we live in the world we do for better or worse. Cope with it, fight against it, or resign yourself to it. But ultimately you do make a choice.

Narrator voice: "The poster didn't actually hate breaking it to them."
fuck you, you don't know me or my situation. I'm certainly not a group of workers that has leverage and just need to apply it.
