    Isn’t the whole “autistic people don’t have empathy” thing a long debunked myth anyway? It’s generally, among autistic people, seen as ablest to assume they are incapable of empathy, which would make Elon’s/Elon’s supporter’s excuses for him in this respect DOA.

      Yes, autistic people struggle with telling how a person is feeling, but once they know, they can be the most empathetic people ever. fElon is using it as an excuse to treat everyone like shit.
