We just did an interview with a guy at my oxford house (sober living), and while he did get accepted, we asked him to wait outside.
and everyone starting making fun of him for being autistic and talking about how 'weird' he was. Even my own brother.
the house president was like "its been said hes an autistic"
Me and one other dude were like, lets give him a chance man. He did get accepted, but man i hate that shit
Why are people like this?
Gotta reify your relationship to hegemony. What if you were slightly weird? You'd at least want people to know that at least you were loyal to the idea of "normal".
Also some people relish in participating in hierarchy (as long as they're punching down). >.>
