Discretion And Public Media

Wondering how having ASD affects ones interpretation of public or media influence.

Aside from not reading gestures, I've noticed people may overreact or magnify social implications out of context.

I find it's also difficult to explain that with regards to certain people's approach and hogging lime light, I'm not prepared to collaborate on not a project we worked on together, what actually my project, and how difficult it is to sometimes, just sometimes explain that something isn't for sale.
 
Media Hoe (derogatory) A person who attempts to transfer or transfers from one entertainment industry to another based only on prior popularity and not necessarily legitimate talent.

Unfortunately often men seem to not understand this term when it's not applied to a woman or having a literal sense. So overlooked is how easily men sell out, fail to maintain values and act rather cheap, but since doesn't hit home on same level. I find gay people use term exchangeably, and more readily that straight men.

Also aspect of failing to understand not just social dynamics but implications of what Romans refer to as split between cowardice in war vs someone who doesn't in society stand up for what they believe is right. For more detailed look into how modern misinterpretations of nizche' miss the underlying objective of what society was trying to say.

Agree. Some, for sure. Cognitive biases. Being programmed. A natural heightened sensitivity to perceived injustices. Black and white thinking...a lack of nuance. Faulty arguments. Ignorance. Then, the toxic form...weaponized sympathy...high moral ground perceptions, twisted heightened reactions creating "fake outrage" and cancel culture...even verbal, emotional, and physical abuse.

I think that sometimes folks with an ASD, especially those with difficulties understanding and inferring intent, reading between the lines, predicting behavioral reactions, etc. All of this can be a bit nebulous and increase the risk for misinterpretation.
 
When learning English we taught difference between can or may I please have a biscuit. If someone finished whole medim size box, I'd say, oh well! Provided considerate of others most of the time. Know knowledge is not glutony but difference is taking credit for others work.
Then another view we ought to teach and that is difference between cant do or would choose not to. Just because you couldn't colonise, doesn't mean your character isn't in question. Here's best one going before a judge and stating your claim to check the rational. Ok, so so did same it worse therefore I can pretend I'm innocent, what? Since when does another's equally or worse behaviour become pardon for mildly bad behaviour. It's sad because it's not same as nazzi debts one inherits but long standing social prejudice inflicted and service to free Africa, and the fact that resources exist should limit those who contributed to manage this for future conservation in Africa, and in fairness deserve portion of what wouldn't be otherwise available. Certain nations were outnumbered and hence lost original ideals that seem swept aside in form of sardonic modern medicine hoe.
It was Germany's actions that first pressed Austria-Hungary, given that didn't have lifestyle most claims against just don't hold up. Germany always oblivious to this social implication when play blame game and refuse to show others how it's possible for army to stand alone, outnumbered. I suppose denial, and then going back to underhanded tactics to get ahead is simply easier.
Question: given it was easy to live of mass vote even if world wasn't flat, taking glory as if you're some sort of Einstein when clearly you've never looked within for honest judgement as to whether you really worked for something or are deserving is far from those who set out to market to publish falsified views of own benefit to society.
Ye, I'm for some when you were a slave you had no choice (couldn't) but clearly would ride of everything from fashion to arts, clothing, deco to reinstate forgotten credit ......
