I am not that fussed any more.
Human filth is human filth. <shrug>

Human psychology is the result of the evolution process, and when you consider our brutal history, is there any wonder that we have, predominantly NT, antisocial behaviour in the young?

Stimming here, in regard to this topic:
Using the Triune model, the evolutionary process builds on the primitive to the more evolved.
As a child develops, the more unevolved components of the brain have dominance.

The more evolved part of the brain, the neocortex, isn't fully physically developed until around 25.
The neocortex houses the ability of complex thinking.
This involves such things as logical, ethical thinking and such qualities as compassion.

The individual you have mentioned is addicted to the needs of his "Reptilian" brain,
Not his neocortex, hence the antisocial activity observed.

Presumably, this person is quite young.
I hope, for his sake, he is. 8O
Hopefully, he will outgrow his immaturity and join the civilised community in the near future. 8)

His ignorance and stupidity will ultimately do him damage.
He will regret what he has written when his brain becomes fully mature and understands how it will affect his work prospects in the future.

I find that thought amusing. :mrgreen:

Demonize people who use it and even get them fire every time they say it
that tactic seems to work good for other groups

Autistic is used as a pejorative in mainstream films TV and books.
I've always felt that the more attention autism gets , the worse things will be in many ways.

There is danger in knowing too little rather than knowing nothing at all.

The issue with autistic much like the word fa##it is that it just rolls off the tongue and makes it effective as a slur. Sad to say.
