"There is a stereotype that public office is only for people with neurotypical social skills, people who are extroverted,"

Almost like you have to interact with people. Is she actually autistic or just some mild form of introvert? My wife went to some centers for autism for a project at work and from what she told me, severe cases of autism are traumatizing to watch. There is a reason why people in most positions should not be autistic.

some mild form of introvert

They like to call that "on the spectrum" now. I guess so instead of a combination of being okay with being an introvert and learning to deal with it where needed, you just claim Autism and expect everyone else to cater to you.

And belittle those of us that are autistic and can interact normally but find it physically and mentally exhausting, so from myself only go fuck yourself with razor wire candidate

There's a huge difference between not only different types of autism, but individuals with those autistic afflictions.

For example on the high intelligence end of autism you often have people that don't innately understand social cues well. Their mind processes social input in a completely different manner. That doesn't mean however that it cannot become a learned behavior.

This chick is just an attention whore who doesn't understand power dynamics. You will never succeed in politics unless you're either willing to sell yourself like a whore in a market, or to exert such social pressure that you take control of both a the conversation and the room you're speaking in.

What she's telling you to your face there is that she's a weak person and will acquiesce to whoever exerts functional control over here.

If the courts shut down Trump despite the clear fraud, Civil War 2.0 will occur one way or another in the next decade, be it public and bloody or quiet with gulags. Thats my nostradamus prediction.

I will be honest. I believe 99% of "bisexual" young women are not actually bisexual, just not interesting enough otherwise.
Also, as a person with zero people skills, I want politicians to not be influenced by being awkward fucks. I know it influences my decisions in life.

The biggest issue here is that they consider that to be her qualification for office.

At least when a dog wins a mayoral election, it's in tiny little hamlets that don't really need mayors.

Damn yinzers infiltrating KIA2 now huh

I personally like to offend my irl PA friend by spelling it Pittsberg

Edit: What would be worse Pittsberg or Pittsbergh? ?

The purpose of spelling is to standardize what sequence of letters represents a word. Pittsberg is the further from the standard, so it is the worse spelling of the two.

I guess Mencken is right; democracy is really the inferior man controlling the superior man. Of course, there are people stupid enough to elect a do nothing who is poorly educated and socialized.

Judging by that pic it's less "bisexual" and more "takes what she can get"
