This could easily be a monkeys paw situation. Perhaps the thing that makes the nd people you interact with kind and understanding is having experienced oppression

Elon musk has autism, for example, and he is a notable piece of shit

Mhh I don’t agree. I don’t know how to express it but I think experiencing hardship doesn’t automatically make you a better person.

Also being a piece of shit doesn’t have to be caused by autism.

It doesn’t automatically, agreed, it can absolutely make you a bitter vindictive asshole. But it can also make you an empathic person who understands how hard it can be. The absence of it is far more likely to make you an out of touch moron though

“It’s a banana, what could it cost, $10?” kind of thing. “If you need an accommodation just have your dad call the ceo”
