Does he have Asperger's syndrome?

Asperger's doesn't mean that someone has less intelligence by any means, this is not a dig in any way. I have beloved family members on the Autism spectrum and often people on the spectrum are MORE intelligent than many people.

It's just that the The cadence of his voice is spot on the way people with Asperger's talk. The way his voice doesn't get higher and lower as he speaks, it's very fast and dry.

His topics almost always revolve around himself or a certain topic, rather than others.

He doesn't seem to express or understand emotions well and he doesn't have a lot of facial expressions.

Is this talked about very much? I think that it could help a lot of people if he went public about it.

1, I don't see it. If he does, it's a MINOR.

2. Err, I've never noticed anyhting about his topics revolving "around himself".

2. He definitely thinks that his opinion is the only one that matters.

I've dealt with people "on the spectrum". They are weirdly unable to even intellectually... "hear" other points of view. It is very bizarre. They end up saying the absolutely stupidiest things, because, as you put it, in their mind, the other opinon seems to not "matter" or have ANY weight.

Shapiro has NONE of that. He can hear another viewpoint, immediately understand it and respond appropriately.

He might not AGREE with it, but he is not failing to grasp the other viewpoint.

Hmm, that's not what I've seen. I could be wrong of course but I've never seen him seriously contemplate anything anyone else says.

[–] Corbell (10995) a year ago

You are not understanding that understanding does not equal agreement. YOu are really missing the point of discussion.

[–] RockAway (1601) a year ago

Of course understanding doesn't equal agreement . . . where did I give you the idea that I don't understand that? I said that Shapiro has never contemplated anything anyone else says, he offers nothing in the way of wisdom from anyone other than himself.

[–] Corbell (10995) a year ago

I've seen him "contemplate" the things people say. I think you are being very, very unfair.

[–] RockAway (1601) a year ago

I would love to see that. I can change my mind. I am just assuming that he has Asperger's, I don't know if he does or not.

“He definitely thinks that his opinion is the only one that matters”

That also goes for the vast majority of your cult.

[–] RockAway (1601) a year ago

I'm not a part of Shapiro's cult.

[–] nooneimportant (271) a year ago

No such thing as a Shapiro cult. The only cult I am aware of is the extreme far left hate Trump death cult.

[–] RockAway (1601) a year ago

MAGA isn't a cult? There are cults on both sides, acknowledging that is a good first step.

[–] nooneimportant (271) a year ago

MAGA literally means “Make America Great Again”. There’s nothing cult like about it. All it is is a pro-American movement which makes sense considering we are literally living in America. The far left hate Trump Death Cult however is a very real thing and a serious threat to our democracy.

[–] RockAway (1601) a year ago

MAGA is Trump's slogan and represents supporters who worship him. If you can't admit that there are cults on both sides, you aren't worth talking to.

[–] nooneimportant (271) a year ago

No one worships Trump, the entire far left however literally worshiped Obummer from 2008 - 2010ish, but then toned it down once they realized what a horrible president he was. There is no conservative cult, it simply doesn’t exist. The far left cult however is beyond disturbing, not to mention dangerous. Attempting to murder the SCOTUS is something that has never happened in the history of our democracy.

You mean like the entire democrat media/party and their lemmings?

[–] EleazarHisSon (751) a year ago

It was once talked about on Joe Rogan that he (probably or suspiciously) had it. But it might not mean anything more than that it makes me autistic for not getting the joke.
