Hmm. I think maybe I have a fundamental misunderstanding of anarcho-antirealism? I'd suspect a large theoretical overlap between the former and illegalism, egoism, critical/anti-psychiatry, etc, but I'm surprised to see that we seem to have a fundamental difference of perspective here, on a narrow subject that manages to encapsulate all of the above

Maybe it's my tankie bone telling me that those ASPD-identifying people don't know what's really in their own self interest. You respect their perspective as their reality (and demonstrate that by adopting it? or no?), whereas I would, at most, agree to disagree with those people. The latter, to me, feels antirealist, but I can see how this maybe isn't in the true spirit of anarcho-antirealism.

I'm curious what You think about this

(2 narcissists try to determine who's right: impossible edition)

I have not lived with ASPD. They have. Thus, they have access to data I will never have. For that reason, I extend a certain amount of trust in their conclusions. I do the same with many other minority stati I will never have.

Additionally, consider all of the political systems in the world that are smaller than states and capital. Like families, recreational clubs, communes. People with ASPD have difficulty participating in those, too.
