i believe there is a huge difference between people like kavanaugh and weinstein and people like stallman. stallman did what he did because he was autistic, needed affection or sth like that. he did not use his power or hide. i feel sorry for him.

That just throws us with autism under a bus. Sensing and expressing emotions is difficult and different, but we are not emotionless and unfeeling of affection. Do not use us for excuses or for pity, it is very degrading.

i did not mean to imply that autistic people are creepy or harm others. i am sorry if it came out like this. i just said i have understanding if sb with autism does not get the social codes. imo rms does not get social codes and harms mostly himself with his behavior

We do have trouble with social codes but fitting into a nuerotypical society requires much thought, planning, and paradoxes. Every situation I am in at least for myself, I am constantly evaluating if what I am doing is proper.This is very much on our minds every moment in public.
