I hear you, I have this disorder myself. I was surprised as well when I was diagnosed. Soon enough you'll start seeing it in your behaviour and don't worry. Your not "cooked". Those with ASPD can live normal lives you just need insight and help. You may not feel empathy or shame, you may not be able to relate to others and you not be able to tell the difference between wrong and right but none of those things will hold you down. You just feel emotion and perceived things in a different way. That's all.
As for the "alcoholic" thing. It's common for those of us with this disorder to become dependent on drugs and booze. It's a way to satisfy your need for stimulants and to combat chronic boredom. I take both myself but I'm not addicted.
Funny meme but it's worth noting that he wasn't denied entry to the US for the meme. It was because they found messages between him and his drug dealer.
ASPD here, like others with my condition I find it hard to have a relationship that goes on for more then a few weeks. I get bored of people really easily and I can't empathize with anyone else.
Really? I don't see how anything he did was racist. I understand why you wouldn't do blackface in America but In Australia they don't have the same history of Jim Crow and Minstrel shows that America has.
The whole point of my thread was about how bad ableism is and you respond by comparing those with cluster B personality disorders to the worst thing there is. People with personality disorders are just people with a illness that can be helped but pedophiles are just irredeemable and pure evil. All the hate directed at them is completely warranted.
"Autism isn’t considered “wholesome,” it is the subject of mockery and common insult, replacing “retard.”
Sometimes, it's seen in a lot of ways. Using "autism" as an insult isn't as common as it used to be. Nowadays people see autism as the "quirky" and "odd" condition.
"As someone with autism, people with the personality disorders you describe often try to target us for abuse."
Don't get me wrong cluster B personality disorders are awful but we shouldn't demonize everyone who has them and assume everyone with a cluster B personality disorder is a monster.
"Fortunately for me, I was raised in an environment that I have a hard shell and fight back, but many aren’t so lucky."
I see where your coming from. People think of autism as either the the wholesome smart kid syndrome or the annoying marriage ruiner syndrome. The way our society looks at mental health is that it's either absolutely glorified or absolutely demonised and autism is unique as it's seen as both.

How would you know?

This has made me mess up a lot of home work.
The modern film industry in one imagine.
I would rather stick barbed wire down my pussy then watch one second of Cock the Weak.

Carti B is a industry plant the same way a weed is.

Hmm, ok. I was raised like that too.
I agree with the last part of your post but I don't like you comparing people who have cluster B personality disorders with pedophiles.
The thing famers use to keep sheep?
Listening to carti B has driven you insane?
Rubbers?
