Social isolation makes people socially deviant. This is not autism as to what the word really means but it is "autism" as to what we want it to mean.

I wasn't autistic when I was younger. I had lots of friends and we did stuff all the time - played video games together, played soccer, ice hockey, went skiing, played poker... Can one develop autism over time?

Well humans are social beings in nature so if I had to guess, the depression would be caused by not fulfilling a basic function and the constant exposure to technology would cause ocd. As for the social awkwardness, that probably has something to do with a lack of exposure to unspoken social cues or facial expressions or more so the ways we communicate through our bodies in our social lives.

I know what you are talking about, but perhaps those people were already deviant to begin with, and isolation just makes their quirks more concrete.

I guess you could argue that by socially interacting we learn what is acceptable and what isn't. But people who are bad at socialization and are repeatedly rejected or not accepted will withdraw on their own. Which probably solidifies their bad habits.

I don't think isolation in and of itself causes someone to be socially deviant.

Oh yeah, it's been scientifically proven that browsing 4chan makes people upto 70% more autistic than people who don't.

I'd give you citations, but case in point, it's self-evident.

it doesn't, social anxiety is something you grow out of when you stop being a teenager, it's not caused by anything but hormones.

You're wrong, unless it's bait

when I'm alone a lot I start talking to myself. Sometimes I just yell out shit in my empty apartment. Usually I yell "suck my dick, bitch!", or the n-word. I don't know why, these are just the things that come out.

Sometimes I worry that I'll randomly yell out one of these things in public, especially if I've been smoking weed beforehand.
