Exactly. I think it's easy for autistic people like me to fall into this mindset. When I was younger I was quite disillusioned with the world, mostly because I didn't fully fit in. Feeling like I was in some way better, because I was driven by logic instead of emotion, was probably a defense mechanism or something. In truth it was not that I didn't have emotions, I just wasn't able to listen to them. Luckily I never really got into the far right "facts don't care about your feelings" bullshit.
