Regular old hypocrisy. If you made fun of them for the same thing it would be a hate crime.

In the end, why do I need to know or give a shit about whatever supposed mental disability someone has? Elon doesn't bring it up much, perhaps because if I had to guess he doesn't feel the need to use it as an excuse. Almost every time I hear someone say they have Asperger's, autism, anxiety, "the spectrum" or whatever it's as a scapegoat. The ones that have legit debilitating mental issues don't have to tell you.
