Screenshot of a social media post.

At the top, there is a dark‑themed interface showing a post from the verified account “jamelle @_jamellebouie.net · 19m.” The post’s text reads (all lowercase): “i think this is exactly right and it is part of what i was trying to get at last week when i wrote about the narcissism of the president and his allies. they fundamentally do not believe other people are real, and do not understand the decisions they make.”

Below that, a quoted post from “Adam Serwer @adamserwer.bsky.social · 3h” appears. His text reads: “I genuinely think the president and many of his advisers, scammers, hustlers, and keyboard gangsters, don’t understand this concept at all and you can see it in the pattern of their mistakes from Minneapolis to Tehran” followed by a shortened link to a New York Times article.

Embedded in Adam Serwer’s post is an image of a black rectangle containing white serif text, resembling a highlighted passage from an article. The main paragraph reads: “Yet never has so much been seen, so precisely, by so many people who understand so little of what they are seeing. A system can tell you where a man is. It cannot tell you what his death will mean for a nation. Such systems are trained on behavior, not on meaning —”. The final sentence is highlighted in blue with white text: “they can track what an adversary does but not what he fears, honors, remembers or would die for.” At the bottom of the original post interface are engagement metrics: “24” comments, “103” reposts, and “603” likes, with corresponding icons.

Have you wondered where the claim that autistic people lack empathy came from?

The 'jellyfish' study was influential in this, as it concluded that autistic people lack capacity for moral reasoning.

Is empathy political?
A thread on autistic empathy.

A still-quite-popular belief about autistic people is that we lack empathy.

I think this is faulty logic.
Here's why:

"Theory of mind" has been used, in autism research, to support the idea of a deficit of empathy in autistic people.

The theory, I think, isn't all it's cracked up to be.

Turns out "can pass the test" and "can actually use this ability in complex, sustained interaction" remain frustratingly different questions.

No, autistic people are not ‘mind blind’ – here’s why The idea that autistic people lack a ‘theory of mind’ has shaped ASD research for 40 years. The evidence never supported it – and it’s time to move on.

Theory: Some scientist cannot detect whether autistic individuals have a theory of mind. Refinement: Or they cannot allow themselves to detect it.

Wu finds that in sequential #PrisonersDilemma, cooperation breaks down when players model each other's minds.

We think about others’ thoughts about our thoughts to navigate romance, sarcasm, gossip, and nuclear standoffs. But recursive mentalizing is hard. In a model contest, I show that under pressure our inner vision goes blurry, not blind. #TheoryOfMind
