It's fairly obvious to me that people like myself and B9 are more 'autistic', hence we see things in a more clear-cut, black and white way and those who are heading more towards the NT end of the spectrum see things in a more 'grey' manner. Hence the disagreements. This is why I will always support a person like B9 whether he's right or wrong as I feel more 'kinship with him.
I don't think some people here 'get' this kinship feeling and it's probably because your kinship is closer to the NT end of the spectrum but you don't want to play down the deep end with the big boys, you prefer to try and 'lord it' over people further down the spectrum, which is pretty crass in my opinion - go and interact with your own type instead of trying to impose NT-related thinking onto people who aren't interested in it.
I have an innate 'like me/not like me' instinct
I recall that a couple month ago you did not seem to understand the concept of "executive dysfunction" a couple members reported to be severe in their cases.
When you read literature written by autistic individuals on the more severe end of the spectrum or reports being written about individuals on the more severe end of the spectrum, who cannot write themselves, it should be clear, that "executive dysfunction" is an innate outcome in more severe autism.
I cannot recall you supporting these members reporting it, which gives me difficulty to understand your statement of being "more autistic".
And b9 reported repeatedly he does not feel any "we" regarding his experience of having Aspergers in relatin to other people on this board, but you used this "we", which makes your statement illogical to me.
