Traits we often tend to disparage were—and arguably still are—critical to human communities.

When you think of someone with autism, what do you think of? It might be someone with a special set of talents or unique skills—such as natural artistic ability or a remarkable memory. It could also be someone with enhanced abilities in engineering or mathematics, or an increased focus on detail.

When I think of autism I think of an incel

This is because despite all the negative stories of an “epidemic of autism,” most of us recognize that people with autism spectrum conditions bring a whole range of valued skills and talents—both technical and social—to the workplace and beyond

Communication skills are more important than your actual cognitive intelligence & hireable traits.
With extremely weak social - you're making yourself look like an imbecile, who shouldn't even come to the job interview, at first.

Not all autists are created equal. IQ and the severity of the condition may vary greatly; however, being socially retarded is ubiquitous; thus, most are incels, even if they don't necessarily identify with being one.

He/she is talking about idiot savants, which is not a synonym of autistic, that among autistic people are a minuscule minority. Most autistic people are only idiots, without the savant.

Actual cope, and this is from r/aspergers. I thought that they at least knew some of how brutal this disorder really is.

Not in a Marxist-Rodgerist society.
