Apparently not changing moral stances in private vs in public makes us unable to understand personal gain. Some real Ayn Rand shit.

TIL Asperger's is when you're autistic but not enough to stop you doing war crimes

It's nice to see actual scientific evidence for what I've anecdotally noticed about people on the spectrum, that they are very moral and ethical and are usually surprised about neurotypicals "moral flexibility."

Like, if you ask people "if you found a wallet with $1000 in it and a driver's license, knowing that no one will be hurt if you take $100 in this hypothetical, and no one will notice and you will not get punished by doing so - would you take some money form it?" Neurotypicals usually say yes even though they say it's wrong, people on the spectrum usually say no and are pretty surprised about it.

Also, I swear people with ASD are extremely charitable and are probably up there with the furries for most charitable donations per capita.

Tbf as an autistic there are situations I'd take the money. Namely if the drivers license said "Elon Musk" but this is still consistent withy morals of steal from the parasites

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
