In incel/blackpill spaces, you have a lot of people who confidently assert that EVERYONE who is incel is autistic and that NT people can't be autistic even if ugly. Then you get ugly NT guys who join these spaces looking for answers...they post stories about getting rejected and how they're KHHV despite trying everything and they get told by these basement dwelling know-it-alls that they must SURELY have autism. Then the ugly NT guy starts to question himself. "maybe I AM autistic".
To add to the problem, these days it's "trendy" to have a mental disorder. I swear, half my zoomer coworkers talk about their mental disorders like they're accomplishments. There is also a massive self-diagnosing phenomenon among the younger generations.
Anecdotal, but some years ago I knew an ugly guy online who was a truecel that was certain he was truecel because of his "autism" and that he was a "5/10" even though I saw his pics and he was like a 3/10. The funny thing is he saw multiple psychologists and TRIED to get an autism diagnosis but FAILED. He was only diagnosed with depression. Multiple psychologists (who, these days, are pretty quick to hit patients with a diagnosis) DIDN'T think he had autism....but he knew better, because he was convinced by people online who told him he must have it. His proof that he was "autistic" was that he liked anime, and video games, and girls avoided him. Just lol.
Also for the record, video games and anime are mainstream interests and have been for quite a long time. You aren't a quirky autist for liking them. Even having extremely esoteric interests doesn't necessarily mean you have autism, especially these days with the internet and even most normies being terminally online.
And for what it's worth, the vast majority of the incels I have known in real life were NT, just ugly.
That being said, if you genuinely believe some of the more retarded theories (eg. "oofy doofy") then your assumption of having autism probably IS accurate, even if it's a self-diagnosis.
