    Honest question: Are neurodivergents functionally a protected class from discrimination in the US, the way religion, race, sexuality, gender are?

    The only even theorerical backing for that I can think of is the ADA, and I have never once heard of it or any other law being actually used by a neurodivergent against discrimination.

      I have no idea. What I do know is that in the US we are restricted to playing the Capitalism Game. That means that we vote with our wallets, and I do everything in my power to let everyone around me know which companies are shitty and should be avoided at all costs. So far Ive been responsible for about 5 amazon prime cancelations :)
