It makes sense because people on the spectrum can have injustice sensitivity and difficulties with social norms. It makes sense that they ignore the bystander effect because it’s something similar to a combination of ignoring the social norm of doing nothing because everybody else is doing nothing and trying to stop the injustice of something bad from happening.
