Funny life Events Seen Now Through the Autistic Lens

What do I mean by "Funny life Events Seen Now Through the Autistic Lens"?

Since your realisation of being, or being diagnosed autistic, have you looked at something that happened in your life and now makes more sense?

I am going to put my story in the first reply to keep this thread a bit neater. Hopefully what I am asking makes sense after reading it.

  • As to the origins of my political views, they are not inherited, though I have a cousin who received an MBE for trades union activity. I think my detestation of the Far Right goes back my teenage years when I saw the newsreel footage of the Nazi death camps that was made by the British government to be shown to the German people after the end of WWII, in an attempt at de-Nazification. In the end it was never shown. I expected to be appalled and disgusted, which I was, but what surprised me was the feeling of visceral hatred that it engendered in me against the people who committed these crimes and, by extension, to all their political ilk.

    The N azis considered themselves as Übermensch, but in reality they proved to be subhuman monsters.
