The claim about Einstein, Kepler, Michelangelo is fictional. It was an “opinion” of Simon Baron-Cohen and the math was done by Ioan James, but the whole idea was based on finding evidence of symptoms of Aspergers – which isn’t correctly identifiable as Autism because it’s seriously not the same thing. Aspergers can’t even be defined properly.
Asperger’s was never officially accepted by the majority of the international medical community as even existing as a real mental issue, it was pushed by the USA psychiatry and pharmaceutical industries, then conflated with Autism. It shouldn’t even have been on the “Autism Spectrum” in the first place, it’s a personality trait – not a difference in the brain itself. The mainstream media keeps pushing the story, regardless that Asperger’s was later dropped again. It’s no longer officially part of Autism since 2013. It was dropped 6 years ago.
The attempt to classify people as having Asperger’s when the syndrome is so poorly defined and might not be anything more than just “personality” has likely hurt and confused many kids who now wrongly believe they are “autistic”
The medical industry was tricking people yet again. The reason was fairly simple, the pharmaceutical corporations would have eventually started prescribing drugs for Asperger’s by conflating it with Autism. Many Autistic people are prescribed drugs now – it’s a big business, very profitable for the pharmaceutical corporations.
Aspergers has no physical evidence, real Autism does. Autism is physically identifiable. The neural synapses are constantly collapsing in actual Autistics, the brain compensates by growing new synapses faster, because they’re unstable. Autistic people – the real ones, not those with Asperger’s – have unusually very high levels of aluminium in their blood and hair samples.
Furthermore, according to an article on New Scientist;
“Glen Elliott, a psychiatrist from the University of California at San Francisco, is not convinced. He says attempting to diagnose on the basis of biographical information is extremely unreliable, and points out that any behaviour can have various causes. He thinks being highly intelligent would itself have shaped Newton and Einstein’s personalities. One can imagine geniuses who are socially inept and yet not remotely autistic,” he says. “Impatience with the intellectual slowness of others, narcissism and passion for one’s mission in life might combine to make such an individuals isolative and difficult.”
