Why are there no down syndrome lolcows when so many lolcows are autistic

downies a. aren't really that interesting, you've seen one you've seen them all, and b. honestly pretty decent people maybe because of their limited capabilities. i, too, want to be too retarded to feel hatred and malice. maybe being a vegetable isn't all that bad
 
Unpopular opinion but autists are socialized to be that way by iPads and emotionally neglectful parents. That's why they all have the exact same solipsism and emotional void as orphans with reactive attachment disorder. The "we don't know what causes it" sentiment started because moms of autists were offended by refrigerator mother theory and psychologists noticing their attachment styles.

Downs syndrome is a chromosomal abnormality. They are dumber but don't have emotional and social problems unless they're experiencing dementia, some other kind of neurological problem. I've seen them run their own social media accounts, drive cars in short distances around their town, even buy alcohol. But they really behave like a 5 year old child would. It's nothing that would make them an lolcow.

Autistic people spend a lot of time online exposing their retarded nature because that's just what mentally ill people do. They're unstable, borderline sociopathic.
There's varying degrees of autism. Upbringing definitely plays a part in how a high functioning autist turns out. Good luck rearing the tism out of a severe autist that can only communicate through grunts and punches. You'll get better results training a dolphin to speak English.

Personally think high functioning forms of autism should go back to being separate but kinda similar disorders. The autism spectrum is like putting every autoimmune disease into a spectrum and saying someone with IBD and someone with lupus have the same disease.
 
People with Down syndrome tend to be raised in very religious households and their behaviour reflects this. Also, I think it would be pretty bad form to mock a person with a genetic issue they were born with versus a person who is otherwise mentally capable but actively does the wrong thing.

Patrick Tomlinson does not have Down syndrome and otherwise appears to be intellectually capable. Yet, he misbehaves. In my opinion, that is a central reason which makes lolcows funny.
 
We have a downy, he's a bisexual pastor in...Ohio? Can't recall his name cause I never visit his inactive thread.


They are sweet and kind for a period of time, if they are carefully and properly raised. When they are dumped because their parents aren't strong
enough to care for them, they either become depressed ham planets like a dog left at the shelter that never gets adopted, or violent, often sexually.
I've never seen one 'in between' just being normal in state custody. They are ruined. DS are like a pet that outlives it owners - not ethical. Selfish and
cruel. If you wouldn't volunteer for a condition yourself, don't bestow it on somebody else and pretend it's noble.
 
As a counter point, plenty of downies are creepy and rapey, those usually get locked in the basement or handed off to an institution or something. I think downies in general have a positive image because the low functioning, annoying and sex pest ones aren't inflicted upon the public, leaving the nice ones.
 
People who are disabled by downs don't have the freedom to become lolcows, and people who aren't disabled even though they have downs are usually stealth about it. Since cpap and bipap machines are accessible nowadays it can be trivial for people who are less affected.

This also happens with severe autists and people with other developmental disabilities. Group homes and other institutional settings love to hire the least qualified people. It's not uncommon for them to be drug addicts that can't get any other job. The ones in my area will fire people for daring to care about their job.

Sometimes they hire middle aged women who hate their lives or...degenerates...
 
Likely because those afflicted with down syndrome are kept under watch and their intellectual capacity doesn't allow for the freedom of action lolcows have. There is also the fact that most people feel bad laughing at someone with down syndrome.



The closest thing to a down syndrome lolcow was that one chick who had down syndrome without mental retardation who starred in this huge PSA about how she should be allowed to sleep around.


Sleeping around is bad, even for regular people, this just sounds like a really easy excuse for a mentally retarded girl to be taken advantage of.
