I’ve recently been playing with the idea that you have to be either autistic or schizophrenic and most people pick the schizophrenic option, and then because you can’t hold schizophrenic pack animals accountable, they pretend to be rational individuals despite the schizophrenia.
Edit: the admins semi-banned me from LessWrong because they think my posts are too bad these days, so I can’t reply to dirk except by editing this post.
My response to dirk is that since most people are schizophrenic, existing statistics on schizophrenia are severely underdiagnosing it, and therefore the apparent correlation is misleading.

Autism and schizophrenia are positively correlated.
