| My observation is that autistic people are better to see through nonsense like flattery, social proof, authority exploitation and are usually don't convinced by illogical argumentation. NTs on the other hand are more aware that people may have hidden motives for their actions or for giving them cert... |

| It's often the case that if NTs see through nonsense but think the group will dislike if they call it out they will keep quiet. In general it's very important for them that everyone in the group agree with each other. If someone has a different opinion they tend to take it personally. |

| You'll never be able to convince me that they aren't still hated today. I'm not trying to convince you of anything. There are obviously people with opposite views on the genocide against the Palestinians that confuse Israel with Jews, but most attempts to label criticism of Israel's actions as anti... |

| Greta Thunberg didn't sign any deportation papers or admitted to have illegally entered Israel. Instead she said she was kidnapped on international waters and brought there against her will. Still the israelies thought the best thing for them was to let her leave the country. https://www.youtube.com... |

| The ship was illegally taken over, or "intercepted", while on international water where Israel has no jurisdiction, right? For some reason that is not reported. |

| Sincerity is very arguably the most overrated virtue. It's often little more than an excuse for when things go wrong. To be honest, that sounds like total nonsense to me. Not at all. Many people think that if they are sincere about something, then they shouldn't be blamed for it. After all, they me... |
