A bloke I once knew had served time in Walton Prison in Liverpool, probably one of Britain's toughest prisons. He told me that the first thing you have to do when you get there is get into a fight and win it. To show you can.
Most Asperger's' people have to kind of do that all the time, metaphorically speaking. They had to do it at Primary School, they had to do at Middle School, they had to do at High School. They've been doing it all their lives.
As Machievelli said, a wise prince is both loved and feared but if a prince can only be one, it is better to be feared. This is a life lesson every Asperger's person has learned from hard experience. That we have no choice other than to be a little bit of a cunt or we'll be a lot of a runt. We're never going to be one of the herd so we can either be kicked to the sidelines or force our way to the centre.
We don't really have much choice other than to be strong willed or we'd get fucked. There's no place in the world for weak Asperger's people. For us, survival of the fittest is not a law of nature we can afford to ignore.
And the thing is…neurotypicals do despise weak Asperger's people. But they genuinely like and admire us when we earn their respect.
