I don't need #Autism to be lonely, in my younger decades, I traveled to live in South America, I traveled ti live in the Middle East and North Africa... and I have traveled all over the USA.
I do not need autism to be lonely, I have seen lonely people all over the place, even those who are surrounded by people.
Social media has shown to be true what 1960 onward television show #CandidCamera had demonstrated... now in 2024 it is extremely common for people to have a camera in public.
People enjoy and get pleasure ridiculing others for mistakes and errors. The "school of hard knocks" that people play against each other. The booby trap of watching others make judgement mistakes.
"Three strikes and you are out" attitude toward humanity has us all on the road to self destruction.
Autism for me has been the kind of mental handicap that a meltdown or mental breakdown in public and being camera recorded keeps many people running away from office jobs, public places, etc.
People don't just turn on each other in wars between nations, people turn on each other any place they can feel superior by mocking another person's misunderstandings, malfunctions or mistakes.
Maybe I should hashtag this "dark side of autism and mental health disorders", mob mentality, etc.
I don't find it funny when billionaires trick politicians into doing their bad-deed buddings. I don't find it hilarious that college kids are convinced by terrorists to cheer on terrorism acts.

Lyrics:
The years rolled slowly past
And I found myself alone
Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends
I found myself further and further from my home, and I
Guess I lost my way
There were oh-so-many roads
I was living to run and running to live
Never worried about paying or even how much I owed
Moving eight miles a minute for months at a time
Breaking all of the rules that would bend
I began to find myself searching
Searching for shelter again and again
