Just learned that my nephew is autistic. He even does that autistic laugh/tick like this autistic savant.

Find ways to identify savants, and place them into a sort of slavery where they toil in a field the excell in for the greater good of humanity, and castrate the rest.

One of the things that people don't understand about evolution is that it is about the survival of the group and not the individual. So like gay people, if we were to take a very narrow view of evolution it would be easy to ask the question why are there still gay people if they don't reproduce very often, well many scientists say that having gays in the family/social unit would be very beneficial over all because of their fabulousness and for example as gays would not be viewed as a threat they could stay back with the womans and gossip and decorate and protect them with their hot gym bods while the grunts go out and hunt/gather which means families with gays tend to be more successful long term leaving gays everywhere.

So if you look at it in a broad way you have really lovely genetics and any woman considering mating with you should consider the obvious warning sign that your family does not have the superior gay genes and instead has lovely autist genetics that will bring down humanity if any of you are allowed to continue to breed.

I Don't Get It,

It is an evolutionary step. But the bigger brains that got us to where we are today as well as Cystic Fibrosis are both evolutionary steps.

Whether a mutation will advance humanity remains to be seen as it depends on long term environment and overall society. Just remember that a lot of what we deem to be the fittest doesn't necessarily correlate with how nature works.

Oh, put that thing away, Samurai. We all know what's going to happen. You'll swing your sword, I'll fly away, and probably say something like, "I'll be back, Samurai!" And then I'll flutter over the horizon and we probably won't see each for... about a week. And then we'll do the same thing again.

in the future, war would cease to exist. not because of world peace but due to the extreme stimulus it brings in the form of noise and light.

five star restaurants would serve delectable dishes such as chicken nuggets, pizza, macaroni and cheese, and fish sticks.

instead of cars, people will run from to point a to b with their arms swept back like an anime ninja

drugs and alcohol will be illegal, cause they are icky and bitter

video game music played at various speeds will top the music charts

jorts and fedoras will be the mainstay of fashion

They'd have to have sex with someone first, so it's a moot point.

normal people in the future are referred to as mom units

they are a servant class, merely existing to feed, clothe, and maintain the status quo

My nephew watches youtube let's play all day and plays minecraft when not playing with legos. He's seven years old and home schooled. Pretty accurate about the food too. Also he thinks you are supposed to narrate as you play video games thanks to those loving youtube let's plays. He hasn't watched Naruto yet, thankfully.

Also, I took him to the movie theater for the first time. He wouldn't go in because of the loud noises. I acted like a father of the year to get him in a seat without disrupting other movie goers.

Sex with an autistic person is basically pedophilia since they have the mental and emotional maturity of a 5 year old.

And autism mostly affects white males so when all white males have autism no one will breed with them and the white race will go extinct.

That's how autism will advance humanity.
