“Being autistic” is not license to be a fucking asshole Nazi.
No but it can help direct you down that pipeline if you’re unlucky enough to not get the proper support.
That’s what originally happened with me until I got out of high school and stopped having negative experiences on an almost daily basis.
Couple more years of it and I probably wouldn’t have been able to pull out of it so easily.
I mean, any angry outsider could potentially go down a dark path.
So…you’re arguing that Autistic people are more likely to become Nazis? Because that seems like a stretch…
Autistic people may be at a greater risk to become used to some sense of “how things are supposed to work”, which can include overreacting to the unexpected or unknown. I know that I like thinking in boxes and was accordingly susceptible to mindsets that put things in clean boxes (male and female, faithful and sinner, and so on) and it took conscious deprogramming to shake off those bigoted views.
Basically, certain autistic traits may render us more vulnerable to indoctrination into mindsets that align with the way our minds work. That vulnerability isn’t universal nor unique to autistic people, of course.
Marginalized individuals, yes.
He also LARPs as his own son complaining about his mother, which is definitely also weird.
Not sure he’s a “daddy’s boy”. Him and his father hate each other, supposedly because they both wanted to marry their adopted daughter/sister. And yes, the father did marry his adopted daughter.
Eww, just eww
I fucking hate when psychopaths use unrelated neurodivergences as excuses, as if it somehow means they get carte blanche to act like an asshole. It actively undermines all the progress that has been made to remove the stigma from neurodivergent conditions of any variety.
He can’t solve self-driving (over 10 years later now) after saying “a couple of weeks” for a decade
Hey now, you left out Ketamine abuse
You’re
weirdan asshole because…You sound jealous
Very simple-minded to assume that anyone who dislikes a successful person for any reason is due to jealousy. There are so, so many reasons above jealousy for why people dislike Musk.
It is naive of you to believe there is no element of jealousy in that post.
It is half filled with reference to his wealth and success.
Take your argumentum ad hominem elsewhere.
And he’s down!
I dislike Musk like the next guy and I don’t think he is a great inventor, but he did not became a billionaire by inheritance.
No, he became a billionaire by grifting and lying, getting government handouts for huge projects that never actually did what he claimed, if they were completed at all.
“Humans on Mars in 10 years”-2011 “FSD… From Los Angeles to new York city with no human intervention…NOW” etc.
But he wouldn’t have been able to even get the ears of those grifts and government handouts without already being wealthy.
This simply isn’t true. He became a mega millionaire by grifting Compaq. He became a billionaire when Peter Thiel forced him out of control of PayPal to save the company.
So. He became a billionaire by grifts and government handouts increased it. And likely wouldn’t have had the ears of those he grifted without already having $$.
Nah, there’s a key distinction you’re missing. There’s a skill to the grift, but not to failing upwards against your best efforts.
You have a very good point there.
