    The last thing I think about when I talk about Zuckerberg is his Jewishness lol. Zuckerberg is about as visibly Jewish as Drake. That is, not at all. The only people in wider society who even remember they're Jewish are weirdos and reactionaries obsessed with their backgrounds

    Why do you assume these people are autistic? Have you ever considered they're just spoiled brats who were never taught to act properly because wealth doesn't care about being decent people? Both Zuckerberg and Musk have demonstrated anti social behavior from their youth, from Zuckerberg scraping pictures of female students for male students to rate without their consent to Musk bullying other children about their dead parents. Maybe it's autism, but their behavior aligns with run of the mill reactionaries regardless of whatever cognitive functions they have or don't have. No one is thinking "HAHA AUTISM" when these people open their mouths because the majority of autistic people aren't doing disturbing shit like them. Also, if you've ever seen Zuckerberg in public, he's surrounded by bodyguards who treat him like a baby. This man has never wiped his own ass maybe except when he was in college. Is it any surprise he's so awkward?

    Consider: Americans don't hate Gates, Bezos, or any of the Google founders anywhere near to the same degree. And notice how Bezos gets the most hate out of this list and he's bald

    They do hate them, but also defend them (and Zuckerberg) because they "deserve" their wealth. But that aside, the reason people don't call Bezos or Gates lizards is because they don't act so strangely in public. Bezos is walking around flexing fancy silk shirts with his model wife while Gates is pretending to be a benevolent humanitarian while Zuckerberg is pretending to be social on live streams, wearing the same clothes, and talking about virtual worlds. Have you seen the way Bezos text? I don't see anyone speculating about whether he has autism or whatever lol.

    People don't call Zuckerberg a pedophile even though that's a popular slander against anyone remotely liberal or Jewish because there's no evidence he is unlike Gates.

    Also the CEO of Google is Indian American. If you think there's no vitriol against him then you must be cherry picking your comments.

      Sure, but that's not hte joke in the OP. The joke in the OP is that Zuckerberg looks like a robot, which is a pretty well known anti-autistic trope that we aren't human because we do not emote how an allistic does. It doesn't even matter whether he's diagnosed as autistic or not, that he passes as such and gets shit for not emoting (a thing I don't do "correctly" either) is still having the effect of stigmatizing autism, just as accusations of Michelle Obama being a man are still transmisogynistic (and racist) even though she's cis. Nobody should need a diagnosis to not get shit for having a "weird" face or showing what allistics think are "human" emotions. And Musk is very openly autistic.

      They do hate them, but also defend them (and Zuckerberg) because they "deserve" their wealth.

      They don't call them lizards because they aren't Jewish. Lizard people is a known antisemitic conspiracy theory. That's the joke. We shouldn't even be entertaining using "jokes" from Alex Jones types, that he's Jewish should make calling him a lizard person unacceptable. We shouldn't really be calling anyone lizard people for the same reason, but especially not a Jewish person. You're probably right that most people aren't aware that he's Jewish, but the people who started calling him a lizard person sure as shit did and are probably quite pleased they got normies parroting their shit.

      People don't call Zuckerberg a pedophile even though that's a popular slander against anyone remotely liberal or Jewish because there's no evidence he is unlike Gates.

      Yeah, because we're not defending Zuckerberg as a person. I don't particularly care if he's slandered as a pedophile other than wanting people to have an accurate picture of why he's a piece of shit. We're defending autistic people from the friendly fire of brocialists doing shitty bits that stigmatize who we are because it manifested in a billionaire we hate.

      Also the CEO of Google is Indian American. If you think there's no vitriol against him then you must be cherry picking your comments.

      If we're gonna focus on who's overall hated more, yeah. I don't think the person you responded to should have necessarily made this about XYZ billionaire is hated more because they pass as autistic, but the ways they are attacked view the fact they pass as autistic as a vulnerability that can be freely exploited for cheap dunks, because how autistic comrades feel about it don't matter to brocialists.

      Zuckerberg is about as visibly Jewish as Drake. That is, not at all. The only people in wider society who even remember they're Jewish are weirdos and reactionaries obsessed with their backgrounds

      Again, it doesn't matter if most people don't know he's Jewish. The people who do know push the lizard memes and are very happy that it's mainstream to call a hated Jew running the world a lizard person, it grants them plenty of cover to be antisemitic in public and get away with it.

        You're right there I suppose. I guess it's similar to complaining about Soros all the time as if he's the ultimate puppeteer and not just another run of the mill capitalist in the giant sea of capitalists.

      They don't have to actually be autistic for them to be made fun of for anti-autism sentiment

      It's like how cis women will randomly catch a stray bullet from transphobia
