>>30275183We're the kind who could have been rocket scientists if our autism was focused on something useful instead of biking in circles for hundreds of hours just to get a Popplio that's a different shade of blue (except it was a male, now I have to hatch 4000 more eggs), or memorizing the type chart interactions, moves, stats, potential items, names and abilities of 800+ fictional characters in one specific video game.
Could have being the key words.
But we'll never be as collectively bad as /jp/ and /mlp/, who could never function as human beings. If it wasn't cartoon horses or Kancolle-whatever-the-fuck, it would have been something else just as bad- Care Bears OCs, hotgluing Barbie dolls, fantasizing about being little girls getting fucked by Furbies, or whatever else suddenly begins to sound appealing when you're an unwashed NEET virgin with no friends and actual mental problems.
