>>37213399I have Asperger's and I think you're right (I think you have Asperger's too if you're going into this much detail but I digress). I'm 27 and I've had several years to learn how normal people think so I can emulate that mindset and fit it (well enough). However, I'm looking through his Twitter, and the way he talks about things is how I naturally think about things, such as pic related.
In my natural mindset, what he's saying here is correct to me. There's no difference between those two phrases in my natural mindset.
However, when I apply the 'normal people' mindset, normal people don't like being called idiot (even when they are being idiots) because it hurts their feelings or something, or it's perceived as unneeded or uncalled for. Not completely sure why that is, however I understand enough of normal people's functions to know that if they're wrong about something, you gotta be nice about it for some reason.
I understand how he thinks. The difference between me and him is that he's allowing his internal logic to seep out at the wrong times and it affects how others perceive him.
I'm smart enough to placate to lesser minds in order to move ahead. I work in software and if some stupid bastard writes something wrong that a fucking middle schooler could program better, I don't tell them that they're an idiot and shouldn't be employed (which is a factual statement). I will just politely suggest ways to improve the code, or even go so far as to ignore it if it runs (but it's still shit). To me and my natural mindset, there's no difference between those approaches, but to normies, there's a HUGE difference. But at least I'm smart enough to blend in with the normie filth.
