No but all the studies I’ve read about it at that autistic people aren’t as affected by it.
At least main stream propaganda.
Even this post is propaganda.

Hey, I’m autistic! I notice that if I don’t follow the group’s current propaganda fueled nonsense, I am seen as an outsider and hated for asking those hard-hitting questions. Eventually, they think I’m “inflexible” or “will not change my mind” and then say i am “supporting the other guy” or whatever. Like what is wrong with playing with a little of devils advocate to get the full picture. Sheesh

Haters gonna hate. Keep telling the truth man, these people need us even if they don’t like us.

When I’m arguing with others, what I really want - at least I like to think I really want - is for us all round to have the best chance at knowing the truth.
One of the best things I’ve learnt is to understand why a person holds their argument, both emotionally and logically/literally. If I understand, then I can affirm the parts we do agree on, the common foundations that help them see I’m not against them, and that give my perception of the truth/answer a chance of having meaning to them too.
It’s uphill work, and often clouded by the fact that deep down I don’t want to be wrong and that makes me ‘fight’ for myself without realising it myself. It also means sometimes I have to swallow my pride about something that’s “obviously right” and “all sensible people know,” and accept I don’t actually have the evidence to show fairly to the other person.
But I find it’s worth it.

Same! This is one of the biggest reasons why autism makes me feel like an alien pretending to be human.

If all the studies say it, it must be right

PostingInPublic@lemmy.world 8 months ago
That’s exactly how they get you, by telling you everybody is influenced (and stupid) but you and them, the smart people.
milicent_bystandr@lemm.ee 8 months ago
That’s what they want you to think

That’s a reaction to propaganda
It’s better than internalizing a lie, but rejecting a lie over and over pushes someone towards overreaction. It taints your ability to see nuance
