Autism doesn’t break the brain, it changes it.

In the most spectacular cases, these changes completely mess the brain up. In milder cases however, it’s far more of a mixed bag. It has a mix of pros and cons. I’m quite lucky and ended up with a lot of pros. I’m definitely not broken or sick. I do, however, think differently to most people.

Could glyphosate cause brain disruption, maybe (though unlikely). Does it cause autism, no.

The UK is a lot closer to that (though still has its issues). One of the main differences is the base mentality. America is “police by force”, the UK is “police by consent”. Our normal police don’t even carry guns. The mentality change this creates is huge. They default to trying to deescalate things, and dealing with things calmly. This makes people a lot more responsive to their orders, when required.

Though to note, our officers aren’t push overs. Most are fully capable of controlling someone aggressive. We also have armed response. Any mention of a gun involved, and they come in armed and trained to the teeth. We also have a mandatory minimum sentence of 5 years for an illegal firearm.

Don’t commit war crimes. Instead, be the reason they became crimes!

Being ready for anything doesn’t mean planing for everything, that’s impossible. They’ve likely planned for the obvious. They also have the resources ready to go to adapt to an unexpected situation.

A swordsman is t ready to block every conceivable blow. They, instead, prepare to react. If it’s a known attack, they can fall back on a planned move. If it’s abnormal they can react by improvising, using the skills they already have.

Oh, and the swordsman’s issue isn’t the lack of plan, improvisation is a key skill. The issue of the inability to read the opponent. It throws their instincts out. E.g. an attack looks like a faint, since it would leave the attack open to a lethal counter, even if it connected. An expert would never use that. A beginner might.
