Even if it’s true, fuck you for weaponizing your neurodivergence.
- sincerely, an autistic person
Weaponised autism dont say that too loud thw americans might start recruiting
There’s fewer weapons more powerful than a large group of autistic people with a common goal. I’m joking, but also wholeheartedly believe that.
Weaponized autism is no joke.
Weaponized Autism
Yeah, he pulled basically the same bullshit months ago with his ADHD (made a big legal deal about taking a fuckin pill at some point during the day to the extent that his legal team and the judge got involved in a matter that should be handled entirely between Sam and whoever his doctor is - clearly a my BrAin iS WEirD So tREaT Me sPEciAL tactic, which I have encountered before and find uniquely aggravating), which I personally live with, so I 100% get you.
Ok, exchange that for the hospital for life sentence that GTA VI leaker got, he’s autistic too
Autistic doesn’t mean you don’t know right from wrong and you’re still accountable for your actions.
The GTA leakers problem was that he didn’t take the olive branch when it was offered to him.
The GTA leakers problem is that he would use any sort of leniency he could to initiate further attacks. The dude performed an attack while already in police custody,
I call total bullshit.
lol they had a group chat named Wirefraud. Bullshit x 100
If he’s mentally incompetent to stand trial, that should have been brought up during pre trial.
They lost. They don’t get to rewind now that they don’t like the sentence.
Neither ADHD nor autism count as ‘insanity’ defences. They’re neurological conditions, not mental illnesses that alter the perceived state of reality.
They’re being advanced as mitigating factors for sentencing. He’s entitled to do that and any competent lawyer would (and should) be making these arguments.
Yeah, but he’s not mentally incompetent. This is an established behavior pattern for him. He tried this before last year with his ADHD. It was an obvious ploy then. It is an obvious ploy now.
It’s a dumb tactic because ADHD does not render you incapable of standing trial.
Maybe they should muzzle him and keep him away from keyboards.
You know what I didn’t have to learn when I was learning to mask?
How to not be a greedy amoral asshole.
'Cuase that shit ain’t autistic.
EL OH EL.
As I tell my two sons. “Being autistic does not entitle you to be an insufferable asshole”.
Deal with it SBF.
