When certain groups of people actually do, repeatedly act in certain ways more often than others do

But they don’t, and in any case that’s not “psychology.” That’s just you being a bigoted fucking asshole.

when its so commonplace to them that other people have to point out that they are behaving that way because they do not even realize it

Isn’t that literally the described experience of being autistic? Having your behavior pointed out to you and you didn’t even realize you were doing it? Constantly?

How about the people that actually do that regularly?

Is that something you think is true about neurotypical people? That we’re constantly “assaulting and murdering”?

How is this not you just being a giant gaping asshole? You can wrap it up in therapy terms if you want but surely you have to see how offensive this is?

Hummus is not particularly unique to Israel.

Potatoes aren’t even native to Ireland.

People pretty generally know that the Irish cook with potatoes, as a result of the Potato Famine and the resulting Irish diaspora. People are extremely likely to have interacted with people whose name and descent are Irish.

I'm saying that anyone calling children "just collateral damage" is evil

If they are, in fact, collateral casualties to a military action, why is that “evil”?

Doesn’t that depend on whether the military conflict itself is justified? If Ukraine strikes a Russian weapons depo and it unbeknownst to them happens to be Take Your Vatnik to Work day, they’re likely to wipe out at least a couple of families. Is that truly “evil”? Isn’t that just an unfortunate tragedy in an ongoing tragedy called “war”?

Allistic people often do act like low tier psychopaths: manipulative, selfish, overconfident and hypocritical.

All human beings have the capability to act this way, including autistic humans. When you say “well, but these other guys are just like that” that’s when you should suspect you’re being an asshole.

I don't want anyone innocent, like children, getting caught in the crossfire like they were during the Holocaust

…what?

Sorry, can you explain how you think children died in the Holocaust because of crossfire?

Corned beef hash? Colcannon? Literal Irish potatoes?
