Elon Musk is not going around asking whether he was rude. He’s not even asking are people if he offended them or expressing remorse about people dying from his DOGE and USaid cuts.

He bought Twitter and let in the Nazis and white supremacists take over.

A person with autism will at least address the issue (unless they are in a meltdown or complete overwhelm). They might not be able to alter behaviours but they don’t relish the destruction of other people.

Elon Musk is an nuanced master manipulator. He has received billions of American taxpayer’s money and subsidies. He was on a student visa but not studying. He’s know exactly how to manage Trump. The investigations into his companies have ceased.

I dunno. IMO he seems pretty oblivious to how his behaviour effects other people.

Oh he’s seemingly oblivious alright. He simply doesn’t give a rats arse about anybody else.

I don’t agree he’s manipulated Trump either. I think Trump has used him for campaign funding and to get political mileage out of stupid ideas like the DOGE that appeal to Trump’s base.

Anyway I’m not saying being autistic is the root cause or even the principal characteristic of a deeply flawed individual. Plus it’s not as though autistic people can’t be complete arseholes too.
