"I prefer to do things on my own, rather than with others."
"I prefer doing things the same way - for instance my morning routine or trip to the supermarket"
"I find myself becoming strongly absorbed in something – even obsessional"
These are all questions everybody living in a modern society can relate to.
Of course autism is a real condition, but modern society somewhat requires people to be machine like and that can easily look like someone is on the spectrum.
No, I'm afraid the original poster was right. The original comment was just plain stupid. For one there isn't a single 'western diet' any more than there is one 'eastern diet'. If you had attributed a single social issues cause to 'eastern society' like conformity to what you think 'the eastern diet' is and does you'd rightfully be called out for racist stereotyping.
