Oh, yes, andd as a result of the extreme abuse that I have endured my entire life, I do not have one bit of repect for anyone else - unless they earn it. I will be as rude as I like to people who belittle me and try to win arguments with me when I have provided scientific, academic evidence for what I say. I'm done with it all.

I openly admit to being downright rude on occasion. It has nothing to do with being autisitc. I thas to do with my anger at other people's polte 'put-downs.'

My autism results in my misunderstanding some things. And it most certainly gets other people to tell me I'm rude when I'm just telling them the truth. That's their problem - not mine. Amazing how many people can't deal with factual information about themselves.
