I disagree with Shleed in the erasing-autistic-kids thread, I may be a burden to my school and previous workplace, but I've offered the world a lot too, I've guaranteed my friends a good time, I've managed to make myself very good-looking through Photoshop, I've shared them as well as nature pics with my friends, family and teachers, I've sent money to a Christian organization helping children in need in the poorest shitholes in the world.
I also think that Hitler would have killed all "letter children" if he hadn't known about his diagnosis which is AS, then he might just have spared the ones with AS/HFA.
I have a good friend with MFA, he may speak like he's a complete tard, he may walk like one too, but he's actually one of the nicest guys ever, most of my aspie friends are annoying, rude, sarcastic, obese, just hideous altogether, both physically and mentally, the nice aspie rumor is a myth, the myth about autists being exceptionally beautiful is also false, most of them don't care about or give a shit about their appearance at all, I pity them.
No matter how much of a high-functioning aspie/HFA you are, you will get tired from all the social contact eventually, you may collapse like Heather Kuzmich did on ANTM if it gets too crowded, or you could just work for yourself with maybe 1-2 people around you to assist you if you need to be assisted.
Regardless...one of my aspie friends said that he would probably "get a bad turn" soon because of all the crowded atmosphere at work, he would start to behave like a whiny prick if it continued, so no, aspies can't function in a situation like that for too long, Bill Gates has got to be one of the most high-functioning aspies in the world, and he did something as socially unacceptable as rocking back and forth LIVE, aka, he got overwhelmed by all the dense atmosphere.
Bottom line, autistics can never survive solely on their own, and especially not during the stone age, they would have to be accompanied by someone else to survive.
