A funny thing about being autistic, detail-oriented, and repeatedly traumatized is that I develop an intuitive understanding of how people talk, act, & respond, as individuals, as members of groups, and in different situations. History bears out that I& #39;m good at detecting fraud.
I used to think this stuff was obvious to everyone, but I& #39;ve learned both that it& #39;s not and that people aren& #39;t confident enough in their judgment to call it out.
It& #39;s like a kind of weird cognitive empathy. I can see when people are trying to force things. Maybe not all the time, but my rate of false positives at least is basically zero.
Hell, even I have been reluctant in many cases to say something. I feel differently about since Trump tho.
