I heard a story on NPR about companies that are trying to create a more 'neurodiverse' environment by hiring people with autism.

Don't get your hopes up -- They aren't going to hire white boi NEETs with a diversity program.

They will use this autism program to hire girls (ideally attractive ones) to fulfill their gender quotas at the same time. These girls will also be much more fun to be around, which is important because they arne't going to contribute any technical knowledge to the company.

This girl is definitely not autistic. Quite the opposite actually.

Autism in women is rare, but when it occurs it tends to be more severe than in men. Girls with autism usually can't communicate or recognize the difference between objets of people or voices and noise. Something like this:

Buuuuuuuullshit. I could show you studies but I'm on my phone.

If it 'presents milder' then it's probably NOT autism. Autism's diagnosis is based on the inability of doing certain things. There's no known biochemical basis for diagnosing it. so if this girl can dance, make eye contact, be social, have friends, and communicate with people fluently, then she doesn't have autism.

Autism is not about liking anime and cosplay.

This is a geniua idea. Harness the power od autists who are really really good at one thing. IE noticing patterns, making algorithms, coding, etc. Keep them all together in their respective autisim teams. Hire one tard wrangler to simmer them down when they inevitably get triggered by a atapler being too loud or something. They will be 10x more productive than normies who cant focus on shit for more than 10 min at once

Sure, find a red herring study focusing on low functioning autistic females to back up your wrong assertion.
Truth is it's 50/50 but little girls are culturally taught to fit in where boys aren't as much. So the girls pass as Norman's more often & as a result also commit suicide more often too so eventually the numbers even out.
It's more than reee & rocking all day while watching 5 second clips of a video.

If you were smart you would see through this bullshit. I don't teach for free, so I'll just recommend two books:

2. 'The imprinted brain,' by C. R. Badcock

All data you need to understand why males are more likely to have autism is reviewed there. No, it's no due to gender bias in diagnosis.

Why exactly do you think people like Tesla or Einstein (who was sociable, whereas being asocial on this anti-social cancer planet doesn't make you autistic, either) were autistic? Simply for being intelligent? Or are there any genetic tests? Or is it an attempt by today's pseudosciences to discredit as "autistic" anyone who would logically argue against their esoteric agendas? E.g. thinking that the universe is entropic, rather than sexual (psychologists once "thought" that everything you do is related to sex = you dream because of sexually stimulating incentives, eat because of sexually stimulating incentives, take a shit because it stimulates you ass, etc), makes you an enemy of their pseudoscience, and therefore a target of their bias. When in reality you do things, because if you wouldn't, then you wouldn't exist. And even asexual self-cloners would end up doing "something" as to not negatively select themselves. Therefore being entropic.

Hence why they argue " if you disagree with our esoteric sexual pseudoscience, then you must be autistic." Of course entropy may in itself also be based on emotions. Just like everything in the universe. So this doesn't make you a computer. Accepting this simply makes you realistic.

So have there been /neutral/ genetic tests carried out on Einstein's DNA and co? Thanks.

Good, but only if they understand that in order to get the most out if high functioning autistic people they have to take steps to accommodate. By that i mean, don't hire these people and then expect them to participate in office culture, bother them all day with office politic bullshit. If you give them clear direction and then leave them alone to do their job, they will be an asset. If you treat them the same as any other employee, they will initially handle it by taking frequent sick days, lashing out at work out of frustration, and eventually quit.
