Any division of folks is sub-optimal practice, but you have to start where you are. Who are all the authoritarian followers, enabling all today's fascism? They're not folks who are in the habit of swimming against the tide, are they.
Anyway, it's self-selecting; I wouldn't expect there to be any sort of rule, but I'm pretty damn sure we'd see a hell of a lot less futile argument amongst nerds, and a lot more respect for established facts while silly status games wouldn't get so much play.
I'm saying, here's a proposition and a project to collaborate on, and it just wouldn't appeal to the sort I'd like to stay out of it, until it's a threat inviting infiltration.

Have you looked into neurodiversity at all? I'm not sure you're using the term in anyway correctly.

A lot of the alt-right shit that's now mainstream, thanks to Trump, spent a couple of decades fermenting in the nerdiest corners of the web; it was Curtis Yarvin's home. The Paypal mafia, Zuckerberg and co are mostly nerds who think that life is (or should be) as simple and ordered as computers.

Like, I do get some of this this, but the things will still kinda be money unless there's basically all you want of everything. Plus the neurotypical as a kinda normy half slur thing grates a bit, said as a non-neurotypical, dividing people down those lines unnecessarily is silly and gives off the same vibes as forgiving Musk for Nazi because of maybetism.
