Or maybe they realized there's no proof he uttered racist insults or pushed someone. And that he might be autistic?

I was wondering about that too

We’re some people see he might be autistic, I see someone speaking in a flat tone to get Siri to understand. I do it all the time when I’m trying to get Siri to respond to my commands.
He’s more focused on trying to make a phone call then interact with the owners. Just another thief trying to get away.

I do the same and I'm a very expressive person. I noticed I have to tone it down and speak in that kind of monotone, commanding tone to get it to listen.

+1



It can happen.


Yes, people with autism have uneven abilities. So he could get to a restaurant and forget to pay, or get overwhemled and leave, or maybe even decide not to pay, and not be able to cope with the outcome “normally.”

Are you kidding?


No, I’m not. I don’t know what point they are trying to make. Having meltdowns when a lot of unexpected/inappropriate things happen is something that is a challenge for a lot of people with autism, especially in the moderate to severe category. That can include swearing, name calling, etc.


Original poster here. My point is that autism might be a reason but not an excuse. If this was the F word it would be one thing but racist slurs? No. That stuff doesn’t slip out because of lack of social awareness. It shouldn’t be there in the first place.


Yes it can slip out as a result of autism if a person is melting down. All sorts of things can happen.

let's be specific.. a white man.

If he is clueless about these things then he's impaired enough for his family members to make sure he is not out on his own. He might do something like not follow a cop's direction, runaway thinking to the cop has cooties or something and get shot.


...or he should be in a supervised living situation. But yeah-if you are impaired enough to not be accountable for your actions (for whatever reason), you are impaired enough to have your activities restricted.


It’s not that he shouldn’t be held accountable. It’s that the social media machine needs to calm down and realize this isn’t some scenario where a white supremacist set out to steal from and target an Asian person.

No, he is an opportunistic passive-aggresive racist. Ate sushi worth $70 and bolted. And his flat tone is not Autism but a racist way of talking to Asians. As if we cannot understand him or his ilk. A low bred a-hole.

Well, if he cannot function in society then maybe some guardian or parent can step up and pay the bill. He did assault the woman. But, if he was any other color but White, people would have called him a conniving a-hole. Now, we think that this snowflake has Autism. Nice try, trolls. He can pay the bill and apologize or he can get canceled.


yeah cancel an autistic man having a meltdown - great job hope you feel satisfied.

if you actually cared you’d draw a line between autism and risk of police violence (worse for black people) but you’re much more interested in canceling.

Well, Black people having mental episodes routinely get shot and killed by the cops. Why should he not be treated the same? lus, this booger has expensive tastes. Instead of stealing a big Mac, he eats sushi worth $70.

Nope. Lets find out more about this man and get him arrested, fined and throw him in the jail for a few days.

There is something called the "Goldwater rule," which states that one should not diagnose a person's mental illness based on a news video.
