174. I wasn't trying to be dismissive or simplistic

My comment was based on personal experience from having seen "less severe" versions of that display in real life. In my experience people on the spectrum who seem be as self-absorbed in their anger as he is are often so because proper coping skills weren't emphasized enough in their early years. Talk to HF Autistics born in the eighties or sooner and diagnosed at a young age (which is when most Autistic people end up receiving their diagnosis anymore) and one common thing you find is the LARGE amount of emphasis that was probably put on coping skills in their childhood. One of the coping skills that therapists, parents, and teachers focus a great deal on is fostering an awareness in us of other peoples' possible feelings. Which is not always there at those younger ages like it is in our Neurotypical peers. I've seen what having a lack of that can do to people, even those who are extremely high functioning, and it looks quite a bit how the young man in the video is acting minus the homicidal rage and hatred of women.
