    The answer will always be no to any general question like this. It’s not like the U.S. is a monolith. It’s a culturally, racially, and geographically diverse collection of 350 million people.

    Grab 10 random people and the chances of all of them agreeing on almost any subject is near zero.

    Similar story here. Asperger’s runs on both of my parents’ sides of the family. In addition Dad has ADHD and mom has BPD. I ended up with the Autism+ADHD combo with sprinkling of CPTSD on top. I don’t even know where the neurological problems end and the psychological problems begin.

    Have not talked to either in well over a decade.

    Usually being “lazy” is also the result of some kind of untreated medical issue or disorder like ADHD, autism, sleep apnea, etc. or any combination of those. Almost no healthy person would make the choice to sit around doing nothing for years at a time. Treating it like it’s some kind of lack of will or moral failing only makes it worse.
