I think neurodiversity vs neurotypical is the wrong way of looking at things anyways. I think neurodiversity is a term that describes how diverse the different neurotypes are. Just as with other types of diversity, you can’t say there’s only one type that’s normal and the rest abnormal.
But is everyone saying they must have background noise either 100% of the time or 0% of the time?
I think the meme was worded reasonably well. It could easily have said it in a more broadly relatable way like “I like to listen to music while I work” where many neurotypical people would agree. It’s like how people like to say they have OCD because they clean up after themselves and put things away.
I feel like if we continue down this particular meme street, at the end of the road everyone will be considered neurodivergent.
If everyone is neurodivergent then everyone is neurotypical.
This, tbh.

So we’re all just on the spectrum? 😉
“The spectrum” usually means ASD, but neurodiversity is much much larger and encompasses other neurotypes as well.
I know, twas joke
We did it reddit!
