What are you like?

Based on experience, it makes sense to me that some autistic people might be very upset by this because it seems like some of them have a very strong desire to maintain control.

My sister is trans and gay and this statistic makes me uncomfortable. It can easily be abused by religious people.

My sister is a trans lesbian and she has had gay liberals call for her to be hate crimed at Trump rallies.

Conservative Christians are more accepting of her then liberals.

I agree, but the real problem with ebikes over light motorcycles is the range. Trying to get an ebike with decent speed and range costs a fortune and the range and speed is still incredibly limited for long trips.

You also can't ride them on the road where I live, a point that I've been trying to get through to one of my roommates.

There's also a huge about of FUD on EVs being able to be remotely controlled or disabled. The same can be done with gas vehicles that have computers in them and EVs can be made dumb with only the electronics needed for them to function.

My sister was diagnosed with autism and she became a trans lesbian Republican. A lot of progressives hate her and can't understand why there are gay people who become Republicans.

It's hard when you don't have any IRL friends and don't even fit in online. The truth is that trying to be social online can be even harder because it's so shallow. When it comes to groups like that, they can be more exclusionary then having personal time with someone because the group is there for a purpose and anyone who brings down the mood gets shown the door.

This is one of the things that's challenging to deal with. No one is owed an explanation of anything, under most circumstances.

I know that a lot of people are trying really hard to get along, but a lot of the "social hacks" they think they can do to simplify things end up making them incredibly challenging to get along with. That's one of the things that I've tried to get across to roommates with ASD that I've had.

It's great if you are able to find people who are like that, but no one is under any obligation to be beholden to you like that. It comes across as incredibly manipulative to try to insist on that.

Because it's rude to be open about not wanting to do something.

I'm thinking about implementing daily prayer in my house.
