Using our Universal Autistic Superpower for good (again)..

(More) superpowers you ask?

One of the predominant autistic-traits, that autistic-people have been attributed-with since the early research of Leo and Hans, is a lesser-ability to engage in affective-contact. Which I interpret as the quality of ‘dispassion’.

We can seem cold to others, we can seem cold to ourselves, and coldness-intuition is strong in us.  
More so than coldness, our dispassion can mean that we are: Loyal, honest, determined, intelligent, and genuine. Deny it as others may the peaks our affective-impairment grant us, are superpowers that make us strong in a most-uncommon way, others may pursue the strategy of coldness but few can harness it as we do.

(More) ways to enact goodness you ask?

Those long-suffered of us pick-up patterns and procedure over-time, we follow our interest and observe the competent and incompetent, and we form steps to deal with trials. No matter what rhetoric and emotion others place in our path, once we settle on the answer we err neither to the left or right, cold as it may seem we get the job done. 
Having an social-emotional impairment, we simply need to know whose side we are on and we are steadfast because we understand the doleful-weight of being misunderstood and alienated, despite our often average-and-higher intelligence. As cold as we may seem for being loyal, we are constant, and have trusting-optimism. 
Whilst often having hyper-and-hyposensitivity senses, we can develop knowledge and acuity outside of the typical-range of development, and as such we can have rewarding and novel sensory-experiences and insights. Some may see us as cold or unfeeling, as sometimes we can process too-little or have too-much to process, but we are ‘unsung-heroes ’ in our tolerance and often help-others with our individual-strength..

By approaching our interactions with dispassion or ‘coldness’, we often expose-others to a sense of honesty and clarity that few could ever dispense, we reduce the probability of chaos and novelty that few others would be able to account-for.

Just as god saw fit to move Sperg to record his observations, Sperg motivated me to record the superpower I have observed, the gift of dispassion. In our dispassion we have options in multitude, as grains-of-sand have multitude in the sea..
