    What is the difference between being an involuntarily unpleasant person due to autism and being an involuntarily unpleasant person due to your upbringing and inbuilt understanding of social mores?

    Is it fair to avoid and criticise either or both or none?

    That's pretty much my train of thought. There's autism, where people break down functionally (I have seen and even done volunteer work babysitting them so their parents could take a Saturday night off) and then there's people who are just terrible with social skills and get the label "autism" because something must be functionally wrong with them to explain why they develop so slowly in certain areas like social skills. I'm inclined to say "fuck it": I'm not obligated to deal with someone who understands enough about how he's being treated to use that to his advantage. Marshmallow's cousin should be drowned like a bag of puppies.

    "High-Functioning Autism" isn't autism, it's someone being the fucking failure they were born to be.

    As someone with Aspergers, I've got something to say to you and that is that almost everythong you've said in this thread is 100% correct.

    Aspergers (essentially "High-Functioning Autism") isn't real. It just isn't, it's a term doctors use to make people either feel scared because they think something's wrong with them or to give them an excuse when they do something wrong. The effects of it are so miniscule that it can't even be considered a problem. Slight social problems? Fixable. In fact, when that's fixed, it's more of a "bonus" than anything considering they're usually really good at picking up certain skills, for some people at least. The only problem I ever had with it really is that my writing is terrible and other than that, I was just awkward when I moved into a new school for the first time but by the time I was leaving, I had a group of friends and a rather large group of acquaintances because I fixed the problem. (Didn't even need help from "specialists") And I'm not saying autims isn't a problem, it is, I've done some work for a course I'm doing in a special needs school with autistic children and they could be a bit troublesome but overall, they're the nicest children I have ever met. (And the teachers bought me breakfast one time, which is always a plus.) So basically what I'm trying to say is that Aspergers is bullshit and easily fixable for most, seeing as for the people I know with Aspergers including myself, there's 5/6 people who freaking fixed it.
