Re: @AC He should have stuck to what he knows
"Is it possible being on the Autistic spectrum, and being a psychopath, aren't mutually exclusive?
As in, it's possible for some people to be both?"
I don't know: I'm by no means an expert on the subject but AFAICT one doesn't preclude the other, and it's something I have periodically wondered about. My personal issue with it is that I've seen people stating with authority that all autistic people are psychopathic because their understanding of what it means to be autistic is evidently rather flawed, but I've noticed particular cases where autism alone doesn't seem to adequately explain a given individual's lack of caring and seemingly dysfunctional conscience. But maybe it does, and perhaps I'm making the same mistake of applying "would I do that?" to someone else and drawing the wrong conclusions.
