It seems to me that the opposite of that supremacy is understanding that all neurotypes have their strengths and that society benefits from that diversity. And that, relatedly, listening diverse voices seems like a good guard against ideological extremes.

I have really enjoyed reading this. You are an amazing writer and thinker.
Both my eldest daughter and her eldest son are on the spectrum and she considers both "tragic." She doesn't like being different.
I can understand that sometimes that language comes out of an individual needing their own struggles validated.
