I dunno, I think many people on the spectrum do care, they just don't always know how to go about it well. There's a difference between having trouble with social cues, and believing in all sincerity, even for a short time, that demons are speaking to you.

More to the point, I don't think it's unreasonable to expect that people with mental illnesses but a regular level of intelligence learn to control themselves if they want to take part in social interactions. Yes, there is room for understanding, abso-fucking-lutely. But you don't get to use it as a crutch.

Autism is not a mental illness and you are being extremely offensive to suggest it is - as if one can somehow "recover".

...that's not what mental illness means, anon

you don't "recover" from most of them either

People don't recover from mental illness, anon. Someone who's mentally ill can learn to manage his/her illness, but s/he'll always have it.

Please learn what terms mean before getting offended by them.

Exactly nothing. Did you misread my comment? People who are mentally ill but NOT cognitively impaired, which generally includes the group of people were talking about, can be expected to learn to control themselves as adults.
