Is it possible for NT people to understand or even slightly care about the problems ND people face? (hexbear.net)

It is possible for everyone to have empathy for other humans yes. It should be expected. The problem is that it is not expected or even supported by broader society.

I would advise some caution conflating empathy with caring. Many NDs have decreased--or possibly even a lack of--empathy due to the construction of their brain. This does not mean that they do not care, though. Even a lack of empathy is no excuse, NTs just fuckin hate us.
