Voroxpete ,

I was just going to ignore this obvious bootlicking, but this part, right here, needs to be called out;

Do you really think he's just making emotional decisions? Someone who's been described as being on the autism spectrum by some folks?

Let me be absolutely clear about something; you do not have the slightest fucking clue how autism works. I don't even care if you personally are autistic; that just means you're an autistic person who doesn't have any fucking clue how autism works.

Autistic people are highly emotionally responsive. In fact most of what we struggle with is the sheer fucking intensity with which we feel things. The idea that we're emotionless hyper logical robots is a bullshit fantasy pushed by badly written fictional stories that use autism as some kind of superpower (and usually as an excuse for a male protagonist to get away with being a total asshole towards everyone around them; especially women).

Your comment entire comment is basically a shrine to "reasons why this person should shut up forever", but in particular I'm going to recommend that you never breathe another word about autism for as long as you live.

And if, somehow, you are an autistic person who believes this shit; get therapy.
