Greta Thunberg could have, by now, carved out a very comfortable life for herself as a liberal grifter-celebrity offering platitudes about personal responsibility at Davos. Instead she connected the dots between ecocide, capital, and empire, aiming squarely at the heart of the beast. And now fresh out of captivity she downplays her own suffering to recenter the urgency of aid to the Palestinian people. No wonder she's hated by the fascist+lib coalition that rules this world.

Evolution does not 'advance', that's a very commonly repeated fallacy. Organisms change and adapt to their environment, but what is 'better' or 'worse' is entirely dependent on that environment, which can easily change. Asperger's is no more an 'advancement' than red hair or sickle-cell anemia.
I agree that classing all forms of Autism as a disability or negative trait is absolutely foolish. But believing it to be superior is equally foolish. People are diverse, and some better adapted to this life, this society. You perhaps see Asperger's as a better adaptation to how you perceive society 'should be', which is relatable to me.
