Is there a difference between autist and maniac?

[NorthernWind]

Autists are rigid and fixated, maniacs have a strong obsession with something.

 

[autistic]

maniacs are far more violent

I HAVE AN OBSESSION OVER DESTROYING WHORES AND KILLING CUCKFUCKS DEATH TO ALL SIMPNIGGERS

 

[NorthernWind]

maniacs are far more violent

I meant 'maniac' in the sense of someone being obsessive with something, not in the sense of being violent madman.

Then yes autistic people are maniacs, but that's not what maniac means so I don't know what your point is

a maniac gets a gf, an autist does not

 

[Nordicel94]

Do you mean maniac as someone who is suffering from psychosis/mania because of bipolar/schizophrenia?

An obsessive enthusiast.

 

[Colera]

The subtle difference is that the maniac is an obsessive person who is liked by women, while the autistic person is obsessive and also disgusted by his mother.

if you are obsessive and women like you, you are a maniac

if you are obsessive and get disgusted by women, you are autistic

Maniac = Autist who picks up the knife
