[ID: A tweet from @/pastoralcomical that reads: ‘it’s crazy that they only figured out tectonic plates in the 60s. a child in the 50s would say “it seems like south america and africa would fit together” and his mom would go “that’s cute honey would you like a cigarette”’ /End ID]

My Dad actually experienced the transition in a really funny way!

He grew up in a little farming community right outside a mid-sized city. They had a three-room elementary school (first and second grade, third and fourth grade, fifth and sixth grade), but then after that they went to middle and high school in the big schools in the city. Except, they had a special experimental program for kids in 5th and 6th grade they had identified as advanced in every school in and around the city, where they bussed them all in to a central place for advanced teaching half a day once a week. And Dad was in this program in like 1965.

Except, there wasn’t really a set curriculum or anything, because it was experimental. They just had a couple of their best teachers do whatever they wanted with the kids. It was nothing like the later “gifted” programs,” it was a lot less pressure and a lot more interesting things. One of the things they learned was plate tectonics, which was not just cutting edge, it was bleeding edge science at the time. So my Dad learns all about plate tectonics and goes home just happy as a clam.

Not much later, he’s getting a geology/geography lesson in his regular 5th grade class, and it’s out of the standard textbook with the standard explanations from the pre-plate tectonics theories.

So my Dad pipes up that actually that’s all wrong, because he learned it in his special class!

And the teacher says, “All right then, if you think you know better, you teach the class.”

My Dad is autistic, though undiagnosed. (In the 60s, extremely few people were getting diagnosed.) He did not notice the social undercurrents.

He said, “sure!” and popped up and took the eraser and erased her diagrams from the chalkboard, took the pointer out of her hand, and taught the class what he’d learned in his special program. While the class was sitting there in shock and fear because they could see how the teacher was seething with rage. But he didn’t notice, he just taught the class and then sat back down.

The teacher sent home a nasty note and had a talk with his parents. But my grandparents were not sympathetic, because after all, it was her own fault. If she didn’t like what my Dad did, she shouldn’t have made the offer for him to teach.

flashback to when MLK Jr said the worst group in the US for black rights wasn’t the lawmakers passing Jim Crow laws or the KKK but the white moderate. That it was the white moderate who was forcing the country to find a middle ground between civil rights and genocide which allowed the continued systematic mistreatment of the African American community

[Image Description: a 4-tweet thread from Sophie Gonzales, @sgonzalesauhor, timestamped 6:09 AM 21 Dec 22, all text-only. The first one says:

“The biggest change of viewpoint I ever went through in psych training was when I said "but what it they’re doing it for attentioin” and my supervisor was like “what’s wrong with needing attention” and I realised I didn’t have an answer.“

The second one reads:

"Crying for help is not something people do if they don’t need help. If you’re "seeking attention” it’s because you are lonely, or scared, or not okay. You need support and human connection. So why is society’s response to that scenario to withhold it!!?“

The third one reads:

"It’s like society is so paranoid about "the boy who cried wolf” we might want to withhold support to anyone who might be anything other than “on the verge of an urgent emergency”. But the way to effectively STOP someone from an emergency situation is early intervention!“

The fourth one reads:

"And the sign that some early intervention is needed is usually, you guessed it, people trying to gain support and care from their loved ones / the people in their lives.

It;s not only valid to ask for help when the distress is a 10/10 emergency.”
