Could we not use "autistic" as a term of abuse on LessWrong? It makes me feel sad.

... Clarify? I don't see very much "point-scoring" at all - most of the posts I read are genuinely helpful, dissenting opinions continue to be upvoted... I suppose I wouldn't notice if someone was trying to game the karma system, but certainly the top ten list is occupied by genuinely useful posters.

I wonder if this might be an effect of CFAR depleting LW of healthy human beings interested in making their lives better rather than in scoring points.

Do universities deplete high schools of talent?
