    Coincidence?

    Re: Linus works on himself.

    Setting aside your stance on the COC(I'm against it), several my acquaintances believe Linus has done nothing wrong.

    Puzzling to me. I expected most of them to agree that his behavior wasn't acceptable but neither is the new COC.

    Why?

    Turns out there's high correlation between those people and people who've told me they were diagnosed on the spectrum.

    Coincidence?

    I"m not disparaging them but I'm curious if the two might be related.

      It's been pointed out that that's a heck of an accusation. It's not an accusation. I'm genuinely curious.

      From one blurb on what autism is, "characterized by difficulty in communicating and forming relationships with other people" So I wonder if the reason so many of my acquaintances who've told me they're on the spectrum think Linus' behavior was fine could be related to having difficulty with forming, and by way of extension, reading emotions.

      I'm probably on the spectrum, too.
