Would You Join My Brotherhood of Evil Aspies?

Post Reply New Topic

I was debating on whether I should post this in Random Discussion or General Autism as this is not to be a very serious thread, but as Random is supposedly for topics unrelated to autism, I chose this one.

So the reason I'm starting this is, I recently saw X-Men: First Class. And without wanting to spoil the movie for those who have not yet seen it, I must say the 'dark' side has never looked quite so tempting.
Now some of you may know that I am quite fond of the X-Men. Not just the franchise or the comic, but of the actual team itself, in-universe. However, after 50 years of X-Men comics, 3 cartoons and 4 movies, even I can see that their efforts remain fruitless. So, of late, I've turned to their radical counterpart, the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. Cuz Magneto was right and Mystique's got a point.

Let's start a Brotherhood Of Evil Aspies. The whole co-existing, blending in with the rest of humankind has, for many of us (let's face it you guys), been tried and failed. So what I propose is that we form a team of supervillains, who will slowly but surely take from 'normal' baseline humans* what is rightfully ours (i.e. we will rob banks), infiltrate into governments throughout the world, and eventually subjugate all of mankind, who will be our servants in our new Aspie utopia.

One reason I think the Brotherhood is such a failure in the X-Men comics, however, is that unlike the X-Men, they don't really follow an ideology. Magneto or Mystique usually just gathers a band of mutant brigands who only care about getting paid. he ideology is only imposed by whoever is leader at the time, and all the others follow their orders like loyal underlings. Well that won't be the case for our Brotherhood! It's going to be completely democratic. If you have good ideas for villainous masterplans, great potential heists, or a nice recipes for when we're hanging out at our Aspi-Lair, your input would be more than welcome.
Also, if you're thinking "But Cyclops, how can I ever be a supervillain? I don't have super powers." Well, just think about whatever is your special interest, ability, or maybe even your quirk, and make that into your super villain super power. There's nothing a little bit of gamma radiation can't fix you up with.

Oh, and we WILL wear costumes, and we WILL use codenames. So who's with me? Please apply with your codename. My own codename will be Autistico, Master of Autism, with the ability to emit from my body an invisible Wall of Isolation which can repel anyone who attempts to come too close. (Yes I was gonna base it ony my special interest being wildlife and being able to communicate with all species of organism, but couldn't resist creating more Magneto parallels. So sue me. And I look great in red and purple.)

(*I'm not taking other disorders or disabilities -be it mental or physical- into consideration here. I wouldn't be very evil if I did. I mean, Magneto doesn't care about Inhumans or Atlanteans either.)

I'll be Candy-Aspie...because I'm too sweet to be sour. My superpower is knowing the enemy. Not quite PSI or ESP (not that arrogant) but I can assess and threats posed to the lair.

Do I really need a costume? I find them to bug me more then nt clothes....

I'll be omega with the power to ruin nt dreams and enjoyment of shows with logic, facts and the power to bend light to my will.

I've always wanted to wear on of those wolf fleeces like they do in Dances With Wolves and maybe go on all fours through pine forrests.

I like dogs.

I have no idea if this is relevant or if it would be a superpower.

Sure.

But I'd have to kill all of you.

You did say evil aspie ...

Well considering that the simple act of disagreeing with someone is often times treated as an evil act, I suppose I qualify.

Many disenfranchised subculture groups have identified strongly with the Xmen series for the obvious reasons. And Stan Lee himself not only recognised that but chose to purposely explore that, safely, in a comic book back in the 60's. It actually pretty heavy stuff when you consider the age group it was originally written for - extreme social commentary wrapped up in colorful spandex and superpowers.

Making the Xmen analogy is a perfectly natural one and I'm just glad to see yet ANOTHER generation embrace it.

I shall be Ordvillia, Mistress of Order and Tidying up after people .

My colours shall be black and white, to prove that those who are against me are against order!

You can call me cameleon, my abillity is to make myself appear to be NT with effort, allowing me to infiltrate and spy.

my suit will be a paper bag worn over my head with a smile, nose and two eyebrows drawn on it, two holes cut in it for my eyes and a watch that tells TIME.

I will wear layer open layer of NT typical clothes to give me the ability to change my appearance.

We could hire some NT genticists and some virologists team them up to design a disease that attacks anyone that does not have the "autism" gene. It is more poetic to kill off the NTs using NT scientists, their greed, and their science to wipe them out. It is also a great way to kill off the posers in our community as well. Science would be our weapon and our autism genetics would be our shield.

Hell no.

NTs are people too.

Expect to see me organizing the non-bigoted Aspies to take you guys down.

Sure.

But do I have to wear a costume? Spandex is really itchy.

Who needs a brotherhood when you can summon forth demon allies from the abyss with the Cthulic calls of the Necronomicon?

I prefer to stay on the good side.

While I certainly qualify as an evil Aspie (what Aspie doesn't?), I will have to pass on your proposition. I find it much easier to do my dirty work anonymously, behind the scenes than I would if I were a public figure in an organization that promotes evil. Thank you for your offer, though. - LJS

I prefer X-men to the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. They seem like they hate the world (I saw the newest X-men movie) but are no better in looking down upon the "normals" for being scared of what they don't know. How can someone not be scared of something they don't understand? Professor X (from the recent movie) seems to be "the better person" and knows that they can attempt to strive for peaceful co-existence. Magneto, however, is consumed with anger and the need for vengeance, which does more harm than good.
