>Learning not to do exactly this kind of shit was something I needed to do manually. I can slip back and forth between the cultural standards of my older brother's generation and mine depending on who the group is. I don't agree with all of either but I'm pretty damn good at fitting in either context. Only one of those subcultures have accused me of mental defectiveness for not unquestionably internalizing their standards through osmosis. It probably is a mental limitations that I don't read the norms of my brother's generation as easily I do my own. But that's not the one I'm accused of being too autistic to understand. The "you're mentally defective if you don't agree with my norms" line of reasoning is just schoolyard bullying to enforce conformity. Even if true.
