"The latter need to practise."

Did you just say tests are more about social skills than whatever is being tested?

What if some of us cringe at how arbitrary social skills are and have a gut instinct that tells us playing the current in-vogue social game cuts against our freedom to be ourselves, and cannot understand how you can be any different unless you just like being a conformist?

Remember when it was socially acceptable to smoke pot (Jimi Hendrix, Cheech and Chong) then it became cringe to talk about being your natural stoner self, then states started legalizing it again? Why should I learn to reverse course just because Nancy Reagan said "just say no"?

What if the cringe you feel at socially inadept me says a lot more about you, than about me?

How come I was handcuffed to a hospital bed and involuntarily institutionalized after one attempt? How come my brother had to use the dark web to get the horse tranquilizer he took to end his mental suffering? Why not remove the police's authority to forcefully restrain me as a threat to myself, and let me legally purchase the same pills my brother had to act criminally to get?
