Military and police famously attract people (primarily males) with autism. I am not related to military but since war in Ukraine I followed a channel called Speak The Truth to understand how a US veteran with Republican leaning background (he himself defines himself more neutral than that) to get context to the war. The guy ticks all the ADHD boxes (ADHD is considered to be related to ASD), to the point it gets hilarious.

Do I agree with him on everything? Well, I am on UA side but politically I am progressive left and European. So I obviously do not agree with him on a lot of matters. But apart from his ads (lot of BS/scams) it has been interesting and, at times, valuable. It is a misconception that people on the spectrum get along with each other.
