You meet every kind of autist on the fediverse. Making weird things a hill to die on and poorly explaining the position you think is self-evident is a personality type, I guess. These people aren't low IQ either, they're just weird...

It's not you. It's the GNU guy. It's like having another Jeff Cliff (PBUH), but unlike Jeff Cliff I haven't seen him talk about anything normal yet.

been thinking about this a lot lately...classical extreme autism (a term i just made up on the spot afaik) was characterized by language learning problems and a lack of a desire to socialize...im trying to understand what's that first step towards autism...I think I have it boiled down to the brain refusing on some topics to understand word-concept fallacies or etymological fallacies...

[email protected]@poa.st He's quite the character. Fedi wouldn't be the same without him.

>brain refusing on some topics to understand word-concept fallacies or etymological fallacies... Yeah I don't mean actual autism either. It's internet autism, but amplified. Like an AI unable to understand or follow metaphors or anything outside their framework. It's always talking past your argument instead of to it.

I like Jeff Cliff. Sometimes he makes me mad, but I can talk with him. He's a neat guy.
