Autistic people make for bad friends, romantic partners, and colleagues so the aversion people have to them is justified. Image
It’s also not a superpower that makes you immune to propaganda and hyperproductive. If anything autistic people are more susceptible to propaganda than the average person.
Most 4chan/twitter right wingers aren’t actually autistic, in fact I see antisocial/ADHD/narc personality types more often.

80% of people in the 90th percentile of attractiveness/health/childhood health/mental stability/height/intelligence are more right wing than the average person.

Easy. I estimated the correlations between the six variables and political views, simulated data that fit those correlations, and found that "gigachads" (90th pctile at each trait) were predicted to be right wing 80% of the time. Image
Using real data (WLS), I also tried seeing if adjusting for the independent effect of each variable changed the correlations between the variables. Only the correlation between height and being right wing decreased, the others were unchanged (see footnotes for correlations). Image

High quality samples (e.g. Project Talent, NLSY79/97, NLS, US Labour Dept, ABCD) typically have larger differences in intelligence between whites and blacks. A simple publication bias correction reduces the estimated IQ of African Americans to 81.5 Image
Figure comes from a study @KirkegaardEmil and I are writing on race differences in intelligence within the USA. Unfortunately it's stuck in the pipeline, so I figured I would tweet out the main results.

Notable finding: there are no race differences in variance in intelligence. Image
@KirkegaardEmil Black mean for the studies I mentioned prior:
Project Talent -- 77.5
NLSY79 -- 81.8
NLS -- 81.3
NLSY97 -- 83.2
US Labour Dept -- ~82
ABCD -- 79.8
