ITT: Historical figures for whom the phrase "Was it autism?" can legitimately be asked.
I'll start
Why did OP make this thread?
Was it autism?
>>2033973
Seriously this. It would make so much sense.

Pretty sure he was more of a psychopath.
>So a few thousand men died for nothing in an attempt to open another frontier, so what? Let's try the same thing again.
>>2033973
I always suspected this. His commitment to the cause, resistance to corruption and eventual neurotic breakdown are hard to explain with any other answer. Maybe some other personality disorder but he certainly wasn't right in the head.
>>2036219
And look at his goddamn face ffs
All the German ones

>His commitment to the cause, resistance to corruption
>he certainly wasn't right in the head.
I find it funny when neurotypicals admit that it's hard for them to not act selfishly and evilly.
>>2038519
I know what you mean, but you have to admit, the joke is on us.
I'm 28 and I only realised last year that language is mostly used as a power game and not to communicate truth. Better late than never.

Not even selfishly and evilly, Robespierre refused to tolerate anything short of pure virtue. In the words of Danton 'he simply can't fuck and money scares the hide off of him.'
There's being a good person and then there's that.
>>2034039
anti personality disorder
>>2039806
Danton was a corrupt asshole and shouldn't be believed.
can you think of another guy that when pressed to make the best plan possible to win the war does exactly that no matter how implausible it is and then when he get's lauded as the savior of germany he insists that it only was a branstorm?
face it, schlieffen was a grade A autist
>>2039830
He was a corrupt asshole but I think that that particular statement is probably pretty on point. It lines up with everything else I've found.
>>2033973
>implying Robespierre did ANYTHING wrong
>>2034834
Only correct answer in this thread
>>2034834
guy looks and acts like Sheldon from Big Bang theory
>>2034039
He was way too sociable to be an autist. He was probably a sociopath.
>>2034072
The best thing that /his/ ever taught me was that Churchill was an autistic furry.

Confirmed:
Isaac Newton
Abraham Lincoln
Michelangelo
>>2039830
And Robespierre was staunchly incorruptible. IIRC he died with no debts and always lived modestly
>>2034432
What was wrong with Micahel Collins?
>>2036502
this
>>2034432
>>2041305
Ramsay Bolton was a major autist.
>>2039842
>being talented and humble means you are autistic
I don't think you know what that word means.
>>2034034
They are strikingly similar.

yes, Napoleon was forced to invade because of the perfidious Tartar.
