I keep trying to find some kind of leftist who claims to have antisocial personality disorder, and the only person I have found so far was on a random leftist discord who acknowledged they might instead be an egregiously misdiagnosed autistic person. I have checked the words "antisocial" and "ASPD" through search on this site, and nobody has ever mentioned personally having ASPD.

Google is unusually useless at the task, too. The most relevant things are articles pertaining to the Soviet and Cuban practices of detaining and imprisoning people who are deemed to be "antisocial." After some digging, I found the usual anticommunist talking point about Stalin and Mao being worse than Hitler or something, tacking on a baseless claim that Stalin and Mao may have been antisocial. No meaningful info.

There's no difficulty at all in finding antisocial fascists, cops, chefs, capitalists, or CEOs. Why can't I find an antisocial comrade? Is there some part about leftism that is inherently exclusionary towards antisocial people? Is it a problem to be exclusionary towards antisocial people?

If any comrade here has ASPD I would really appreciate hearing your experience.

    Seen it first hand. Those who only want leftism for a better life fall into liberalism quickly. It's extremely easy to get ahead under liberalism as long as you're willing to put your boot on the neck of someone else, and that's a way more positive outlook for someone who only cares about themselves than to spend your entire life fighting for something you'll never personally benefit from. They live in a nice house and receive funding from fascists. As soon as the material conditions require it, I fully expect that they'll abandon all of their progressive values and transition into a full blown white supremacist. Dreading the day that happens.
