In real life the good guys don't do that stuff. It's sort of adjacent to copaganda where the noble police detective HAS to torture the suspect because he's going to strike again! That red tape lawyer bs is going to get everyone killed!!!

But if you look at what that mentality enables in real life it's innocent teens getting beaten up and tricked into incriminating themselves because bad media led us to believe breaking the rules is what good cops have to do to save the day.

In what way aren't the crazy preachers representative of a massive segment of the population here?

I feel like the saying that autism is a difference and a disability applies here. Some autistic people are more affected by differences being mistaken for disabilities, and feel disability language undercuts them. Some autistic people are more affected by disabilities being mistaken for differences and feel difference language undercuts them. My thought is that both sides need to acknowledge both sides.

I'm au-dhd, and the person in the middle paragraph sounds like they both have one of my ADHD symptoms and are also a jerk. I try to remember that only my ADHD friends like to play interrupting tag, and while I'm bound to screw up elsewhere, I try to treat it clearly like I'm screwing up because it is an understandable default to let people finish their sentences.

Autistic people can feel and comprehend emotions like everyone else, no difference. Not sure why those two were on your list. As far as interpreting emotion, we can, we just have to learn how instead of doing it innately, which it seems Odo did for all human behavior.

This may be unrelated to you, and only a me thing, but I had a couple of people in my lifetime that were great to me usually but would also tell me sometimes that other people were talking about x or y, or that I did something wrong and everyone was just being polite in a particular situation. So I began to rely on those people's impressions of other people's impressions of me to dictate my behavior. It took me years after those people were out of my life (it is exhausting to be someone's conduit to humanity), where I was hyper-vigilant in every social situation wondering who is judging me, as those people had assured me they were but I could never tell, that it really just wasn't happening.... This lifetime insanity of thinking everyone wanted to shame me had to do more with the insecurity of a few people. And yea sometimes people did overtly point things out that they just thought was weird or "wrong" and that factored into the shame as well, but these people are also isolated voices and not part of a chorus, and I think the well-meaning ones did more damage. Just shooting my own stuff into the dark in case it sticks.

its only my style to be Secret please bring me five can of olives

Late ds9 is my absolute favorite so clearly you are an individual of profound taste.

I'll give you points for controversial. I actually liked that season a good bit, but that is a pretty bold statement.
