There's a particular kind of autistic people which is worse.
My dad who behaved as a normal person, even loved to disprove anti-scientific claims and expose freakery and all that, except he had that inferiority complex and thought foreigners exist to give him the big child candy and say absolute truths, and he also thought autism is like demon possession. I mean, people usually are not who they pretend to be, but he seemed to really like discussing interesting mathematical problems at some point, I was a kid and he didn't try well enough to explain what he was talking about, though. But I expected him at least to talk to me first in such a situation.
So a bad person with a very foreign second name (not really, just the real second name is kinda famous, I suppose, the events also happened about some time after I called famous bearers of that second name bitches) said to him a few kind words, maybe even literally gave him candy, told him he's very smart and his family is abusing him when, eh, criticizing his intelligence, and also told him I'm autistic (he didn't even try actually learning what that is, just was terribly afraid of it and certain he's not), and that moron started running around secretly "curing" me, yelling every morning probably to scare away the possessing demon or whatever, trying to force me eat a lot of weird food, and never directly talking to me. I hope he wasn't "talking to me" via a fortuneteller or a medium. Fucking idiot.
Or my old friend who again ignored me, I'm sure it's for some occult reason too. He'd routinely stuff bullshit names into roleplaying and worldbuilding from history freakery where Aryans built Egyptian pyramids a century between a nuclear war after which 16 century Europe emerged, or something like that. Doing that covertly, not telling where did he take that crap from. Every time someone would discuss actual analogies from actual history, looking suppressed-hostile and trying to stuff something again into the conversation.
Both felt like someone covertly putting pieces of shit into your meal and being certain they are right so everything is fine.
OK. This was completely offtopic, but at the same time maybe not.
