1. You joined less than one month ago, so trying to pin this on any group is hysterical.
2. My son is on the high functioning end of ASD. His iq at six was 127. What I’m getting at is that seven and one half he’s smarter than you.

I've been here FAR LONGER than you have and you are absolutely dead wrong.

Since your son isn't posting to FR ( or has he taken over your nic...which would explain quite a lot of your posts ) and you don't know the poster to whom you posted that reply, you need to rethink all of that.

Hey douchebag, I’ve been here longer than you if you want to make an issue of that.

Tell your son that his father is the high functioning south end of a northbound horse.

Good for you son. I hope he grows up to be a wonderful computer programmer, engineer, or doctor.

My IQ is 146 and I have high functioning Asperger’s. The reason I called it mass autism it's because it's exactly the type of event I experience from time to time. I'm sometimes left clueless because all I see are the formal rules of a system and not how regular people will perceive it, which is what happened with Cruz and his supporters over CO. I've suspected for quite a while that Cruz is an Aspie.

And my IQ is 165 ... and I am a girl ... and blonde! And I can vote, unlike your son. Go Trump!

Redwulf: The interesting point is I don't think a lot of Cruz supporters realized how insulting they were being. It's almost like mass autism.

To be fair, there have been a lot of "casualties of debates"... so he could have had to make a new account.

He didn't say anything at all disparaging anyone's intelligence there, he just noted that their obliviousness to the more emotional aspect of the behavior, which is exactly why it's said that the autistic "are characterized by difficulty in communicating and forming relationships with other people and in using language and abstract concepts."

Is it insulting to use the characterization to describe the phenomenon? Perhaps, but the "almost like" certainly makes it clear that it's a characterization description he's making, not a pejorative or insult which, it seems, is how you took it.

IMHO a lot of high IQ people are somewhat autistic, it helps you concentrate.
