    I don’t doubt they’re autistic.

    I also don’t understand why you think they’re an asshole. Allistic people often do act like low tier psychopaths: manipulative, selfish, overconfident and hypocritical.

    It’s just that they do this in ways they don’t perceive, such that they don’t recognize it until it crosses a more extreme threshold.

    Here’s a … perhaps more palatable version of the same idea:

    And if you’d like to know more:

        Ok so you don’t seem to know much about psychology.

        Sure, in an extremely broad sense, all humans have the capability to act in any way.

        When certain groups of people actually do, repeatedly act in certain ways more often than others do, when its so commonplace to them that other people have to point out that they are behaving that way because they do not even realize it, now you have the beginnings of how to classify people psychologically.

        If we all have the theoretical, idealized capacity to violently assault and murder random animals with no provocation or explanation… super. Great.

        How about the people that actually do that regularly?

        You can’t do any kind if psychological screening or differentiation or descriptors whatsoever if your entire theory is ‘well technically anybody can do anything, so everyone is the same’.

        This is like 11th grade debate club sophistry you’re pushing here.
