Yeah that's what all those "psychos are just normal people" folks don't understand. Just because you're not a serial killer doesn't mean you're not dangerous. These people will engage in deplorable practices, manipulation, psychological abuse and will ruin people's lives for the hell of it.

What she is feeling is rage,emotion to psychopath is foreign so when she talks about "not making a decision yourself" it is literaly that, Rage embodies her and she isn't her,now body is controled by emotion rather than logical thinking which is strange to them and if it's strong enough then it will take over.. And i think most of the time that "lack of authority" is at fault for making them burst out to violence,because mistakes of other people do not bother them,it's insignificant to them..But thinking you can control them and their actions is infuriating to them because they already do not care about social norms so hyarchy dosen't apply to them...

You mean psychopathic, not psychotic. What do you think psychotic actually means? You keep using that word, I do not think it means what you think it means... It doesn't mean violent, or aggressive. Or anything like that. A lot of people confuse it with the term "psychopathic" which has absolutely nothing to do with it, it's not even remotely the same thing. Remember, mentally ill people, including people going through an episode of psychosis, commit _FEWER_ crimes on average per person than mentally healthy people do, including violent crimes. Mentally ill people, including those with psychosis, are actually way more likely to be _VICTIMS_ of crime than mentally healthy people are. I can post sources for this if you want. As someone with schizophrenia it just really bothers me when people completely misuse the word "psychosis" because it just adds to the awful stigma that people like me already have to face, when people think we're violent or killers even though we're a lot more likely to be victims of those kinds of crimes than mentally healthy people are, and we commit fewer crimes per person than mentally healthy people do. Statistics and facts never seem to matter to people, they just hear "psychotic" or "schizophrenic" and think that we're dangerous when we're not. The only danger we pose is to ourselves, from self harm and suicide. When I have an episode of psychosis, my paranoia just goes into overdrive. To try and sum it up, I always think I'm in a Truman show mine of situation, where everyone is actor, I think everyone is spying on me, watching absolutely everything I do, everything I do on my computer and phone and tablet is monitored, there are secret hidden cameras in my apartment that I spend hours trying to find, and so on. That's what being psychotic actually is. It's just when I'm very ill, and I become suicidal because I think I'm constantly being watched and monitored and everyone I know is secretly an actor and so I can't trust them, even my family. I think any food they make for me is poisoned. It's so stressful living like that that dying feels like the only escape. When you're psychotic, you feel like you're completely sane, and it's everyone and everything around you that's gone crazy, the world itself has gone insane and you're the one sane person left. You feel completely alone. Then I report this to my psychiatrists and I get a higher dose of the anti-psychotics meds, or different anti psychotics meds, and within a few weeks I feel normal again and I can't believe the crazy shit that I was convinced was true only a few weeks before. I'm not sure exactly what you think "psychotic" means. But please stop adding to the stigma mentally ill people have to face, that makes our lives so hard, makes it incredibly difficult to find employment, to find a place to live that'll accept you there because they're one of the only ones who don't think you're dangerous. There's a reason why so so so many people with schizophrenia end up homeless. We aren't a danger to you. We are just normal people. The percentage of people with schizophrenia is the same as the percentage of people who are gay. So think how many gay people you know, and realise that you very likely know around the same number of people who have schizophrenia. And you have no idea, unless they tell you. Because it's very very easy to hide, and we are just normal people just like you. We aren't dangerous or violent. We are your friends, your co-workers, your family members. Don't believe what Hollywood movies show, Hollywood movies never depict mental illness accurately. We aren't serial killers. We're people who are whacky and weird and go around on street corners shouting about ridiculous things. We are so so much more likely to be victims of crime, including violent crime, than you mentally healthy people are. And so adding to the stigma we have to face and claiming we're dangerous, is victim blaming. Sorry for the long post but this obviously is incredibly important to me. And to a lot of people. There are millions and millions and millions of us and you encounter someone with schizophrenia every single day. And you don't even know. Because we're just normal people, we just have a mental disability.

@duffman18 I have dealt with a sociopath in my life for 20 years. I am well aware of the differences between the types of psychopathy. I wasn't referring to violent tendencies. I see the inability to empathize or sympathize with other people's feelings. Furthermore, I think the definition of "dangerous" should be clarified as well. Yes... people who have psychotic personalities can pose a physical danger to others. They can and do more often present other dangers such as emotional, financial, and even spiritual dangers to those who get close to them or even to those in whom they know only for a short time. Psychotic people are dangerous until they have hurt people so much that they finally hurt themselves enough to understand that they need to change something. They don't change because they feel bad about hurting others, however. They only change because they finally HAD to change so they could get themselves out of trouble. You don't get them to finally start to see the world the way an average person does. They won't ever do that. If you are psychotic, in my experience, you are dangerous in one way or another. Not necessarily physically but willing to hurt me or others for your own purposes unless you have finally hurt yourself so bad that you now care to change. I speak from experience. I don't care what Hollywood does. Good luck to you. I hope you can sort things out for the better. 🙏

In social science research, the rates of psychopathy among CEOs and corporate upper management is about the same as the rates of psychopathy among prisoners. This tells one a lot about our society of corporate capitalism built on extremes of high inequality, dominance hierarchies, social Darwinism, and hyper-individualism. One wonders what an actual functioning free market would look like that wasn't owned, controlled, and ruled by psychopaths, other dark personalities (narcissists, Machiavellians, sadists), and social dominators.

I spent time with a psychopath about a year ago and it went very badly. I really value that this channel is helping the world understand this condition better. I still have not figured out how to reconcile the bottomless moral repulsion as well as fear one experiences from a psychopath, with the realization that they are born this way and in a way it’s not their fault. From that perspective hating them seems irrational; but it’s not clear what else is to be done. Avoid them? Friendship, trust, understanding with them is impossible. They only live to deceive. They don’t have the normal emotions or reward mechanisms other people have. They are never actually invested in the relationship as a friendship, they’re just calculating a way to use you. Thus, it is almost antithetical to try to empathize with a psychopath; empathy implies a degree of acknowledgment of someone’s inner humanity; it implies you recognize the fundamental good in someone. But there is none in psychopaths. That was a hard lesson for me to learn.

The way she tells stories is a perfect demonstration of her lacking empathy. She is dissociated from the emotional experience that her actions inspire in other people, and doesn't consider those people in her decision-making - she is wholly self-interested, which is why it can be great (for a time) to emotionally enmesh with someone like this. They can 'set us free' from all worry until we see the reality of who they are. Humans are insanely complicated.

Humans are NOT complicated. This is why we understand human beings. The universe appears to be unknowing and a mystery. The ocean depths are still left unexplored, but humans??? No, my lady, they are absolutely not complicated. The average human is innately driven by selfish desires. It starts from birth, and they learn to adjust these impulses through interaction with their community. Empathy can be taught and developed, and it is utterly, and absolutely necessary. A sociopath/psychopath, however, is the embodiment of evil and when you have truly met one, there is no question. There is no complication or rationalizing it more than it really is. (As a psychoanalyst, seek the renowned M. Scott Peck as a good jumping point for more clarity. He has had direct confrontations and interactions with them).

That malfunction is what makes them dangerous and leads to terrible consequences, as it's true many people do wind up under the psychopath's spell (manipulation they're all about) and wind up following psychopaths over the cliff. It's curious "normals" keep doing this over and over and why the "normals" are always so easily and willingly seduced by psychopaths as if the "normals" desperately need the psychopaths to exist

Because, to them, it is. Psycho/socipaths are not all prone to violence. Cruelty, maybe, but not violence. The top brass at Enron were sociopaths. They dealt a huge blow to the US economy...because they wanted money and believed they'd get away with it. People killed themselves because they lost all of the value of their Enron stock. The interviewee prefers "sociopath" because it doesn't have the violent connotations that "psychopath" does. It's important to see the distinction.

Did she say gray rage? Her explaining how sometimes she feels the impulse to threaten or hurt someone just because they have a false sense of their own personal safety sent chills down my spine. Unfortunately, it’s quite common for a person to grow cold, angry, and violent with enough pressure. However, being able to smile and calmly explain your impulsive rage which leads to violent emotions rather than rationalizing the action away or defending it, was scary.

Lol honestly it made a lot of sense to me because I grew up around men who were excessively violent (not to me but in their lives) and that is a clinical way of describing their behavior and feelings in a lot of interaction, it’s sort of dissecting the emotions behind the fraze “who the fuck do you think your talking to?” Or “remember who you talking to?” What’s funny about psychopaths is they’re born with personality traits other people have to pushed or conditioned to sometimes over the course of a lifetime.

It's very apparent she is honestly expressing her misunderstanding of how many humans think and feel. She does not understand empathy because one reason to not do something violent or hurtful that many people factor in is to not want someone else to feel the negative consequences that would come from a certain behavior or action. Not wanting another to experience that pain is a huge reason to not do something negative, regardless of being caught or worrying about judgements of others.

I actually went to middle school and HighSchool with this person. It was obvious that there was something …. different …. about her. I have sometimes wondered over the years what *exactly* her condition was …. now I know. I was not close to her. I cannot say I knew her well. We played on the same softball team a few times over the years. I remember her being mostly quiet. The only reason I recognized her is her jaw and her smile. The video seemed to randomly appear in my YT feed, and I saw her face, and was like “Is that …J*%?” This is the most chatty I have ever seen her. In my memory, she was very quiet.

According to her, she is not. She had a friend who told her she should be tested for an antisocial personality disorder. She couldn't hold down a job or have relationships with people for longer than 3 years. The tests identified her as having psychopathy which led her to getting a therapist. That work helped her moderate her interactions with people and it improved her relationship with her family probably because it gave them the information they needed to understand that she has a mental health issue.

Exactly. The "grey rage" seems more like could be fake "rage" or something other than "rage," almost like if you were, in the psychopath's shoes, a "god" walking the earth, and a mere mortal tried to "control" you allegedly "without authority," which is in reality most likely just some basic thing in society like don't light fireworks around babies, and your "powers" or "destiny" automatically completely obliterate annihilate the mere "mortal" who dared cross you, to "correct them" for "feeling safe" (odd phrasing since we're told psychopaths don't think about other people or their emotions). Something strikes me the "grey rage" thing might not just be about what she claims it's about, but probably the psychopath might actually derive great pleasure from the methodical "correcting" part of the annihilation of someone supposedly "trying to control them," when really it's the other way around...

The thing about psychopaths part of the criteria is inappropriate anger . They are dangerous because they feel no guilt or shame or remorse. So literally they don’t feel bad about anything they do so it is more likely they will make choices that are dangerous for themselves and people around them. Even ones that don’t engage in physical violence do things that are harmful to others. Look at big CEO’s they will gut a company do mass layoffs and not feel a thing.

I think what she is trying to explain is that she might be damaging, but not necessarily with the intention to harm or will enjoy inflicting harm to others. As a former victim of abuse by different types of anti socials, you can clearly see that many will harm others because they think the other deserves it... it's their fault. But that is totally different than the aspect of sadism. Harming for the sake of harming, to relief themselves of boredom and taking deep joy, self validation by the harm they inflict and the physical/mental signs of inflicted harm, the reactions to the wounds inflicted. I suspect that luckily, only few anti socials are also sadist. Maybe there's a 'sadism spectrum'.

Sadism and psychopathy, along with narcissism and Machiavellianism, are all dark personality traits. When all four are included it's called the Dark Tetrad, but others prefer to limit it to the Dark Triad. The argument is sadism doesn't need to be included because it's a common feature of the other three. I don't know if all psychopaths would have a greater capacity for sadism. It is more common among them, but often it's just a potential, not necessarily actual behavior. The psychopath in this video likely doesn't at present exhibit sadism, if it might be easier for something to trigger it in her under the right conditions.

I've known several people diagnosed as psychopath, or sociopath or narcissistic psychopath, borderline, narcissist. And a few who i don't know of but very strongly leaned towards such a disorder and of all those individuals (about 15 in total) was only one who would harm for the sake of joy/ self validation/ control. A few of the others could harm in a seemingly sadistic way but that's just how it felt. In retro spect i can see they didn't cause harm for the sake of joy or so. For example they might protect a warped view on an issue and gaslight you into thinking you are wrong because you are too sensitive about the issue.... And even others of that group were more or less parasitic/manipulative in their approach not as much 'abusive'. Of course i am no doctor, this is how i experienced these people over very long times.

It doesn't mean you will be violent (though you'll go there if they persist or physically threaten you), but you're so affronted by their presumptions it does trigger a kind of a rage response.

I think she has a hard time explaining the things she was “taught to do” as a kid, growing up in a hippie environment, versus the absolute range of what her response could be in any particular situation. I think it’s not helpful to say “well she says she doesn’t have empathy, then she says she has empathy!” When she’s likely trying to relay “I can only have empathy in hindsight, which I learned to do through my non-violent childhood, and through seeking treatment as an adult.” She also laughs at some of the things she does, because she sees how silly or weird her actions were compared to what society considers normal. She’s laughing at her self because that’s what she would do to someone else. She can’t trigger herself, because she doesn’t see herself as a threat, and doesn’t care. We’re forgetting that most psychopaths are raised along side us, and can learn how to “act” in public, and can learn to reduce their frustration and anger when disciplined because they also can learn pattern recognition. E.g. If I do these things and people get mad every time, and punish me, I will be angry and frustrated, so I will no longer do that.

I am very surprised at my reaction to this extremely powerful and honest video. I like this woman and would have no qualms in having her as a friend. This woman is extremely intelligent, rational, self aware, introspective, objective, open minded, conscientious, responsible, accountable, honest, direct, reasonable and understands she is different from others and most admirably she accepts the fact and truth about how she is different and actively has been in treatment to understand AND learn how to become a better human, person, employee, friend, daughter, etc… I am beyond grateful for this priceless education you’ve provided me with today. I know, my gratitude and appreciation means nothing to her but it does to me. And I am perfectly good with that.😎

I do find it surprising about the friendship part. If she can't feel empathy what makes people sure she'd even be a good friend? What makes you certain she'd care at all if she made you feel shit or cancel plans on you at the last minute? If she can't connect deeply how can she even form meaningful friendships? Wouldn't they all lack depth? She's never mentioned feeling any love in any of her videos.

@@EyesOfCalm Trying to kill a baby opossum disturbs me - but, then again, I haven't met anyone who, when you get to know them properly, hasn't disturbed me in some way or other. Friendships and other relationships don't have to be symmetric: what I feel for a friend doesn't need to be reciprocated in exactly the same way; it usually isn't. It's a matter of treating people on terms that suit both them and yourself. My friend is indeed a true friend, for whom I feel empathy and warmth towards and who, though he can't empathise with my feelings that well (if at all), is still loyal and full of goodwill towards me. He just has a few good friends like that, in my case three decades worth of friendship, and he's proved that he is reliable whenever I might need help, just as I am for him. (Slightl caveat: he's more of a high-functioning sociopath than psychopath.) More generally, most of my friends and family are neuro-divergent at least one way or the other, and you just have to treat everyone individually, sometimes having to manage the relationship and keep a certain distance or stick to certain safe/comfortable modes of interaction with each other. I've only met a few actually evil people; nearly everyone else lives up (or down) to expectations.

Most of the people interviewed by the "experts" on psychopathy were in prison so certain attributes are overemphasized in the literature. I've never harmed anyone and I certainly don't consider myself dangerous. I explain it like this, psychopaths are outcome-oriented. What would harming someone achieve? I'm not a sadist. And, I really don't want to go to jail. Likewise, why would I steal? There are less risky ways to get money (like working at a job that I'm good at, I enjoy, that pays well, and that isn't hard). Most psychopaths glide through life following the past of least resistance. The ones who are in jail usually have other disorders, have a different cost-benefit calculation, or less impulse control. The important thing is that we generally don't feel guilt about the things we do, which makes OUR calculation different from the calculation of a normal person.

The thing is, normal people don’t just obey the law because of the legal consequences. We consider the victim on the other side of these crimes, regardless of the legal consequences. It’s why laws are created. Ideally, they exist to protect people and their humanity first and foremost. Because there are people (like psycopaths) who don’t consider how their choices can negatively impact and harm other people. What would harming another person acheive? It would harm someone, that’s why you don’t do it. Not because you’ll get thrown in jail and not because it won’t acheive anything for you.

The researchers are saying psychopathy level is a spectrum. But it seems on the far end toward clinical psychopathy there's a malfunction, as in no off switch. "Normals" or those not so far on that far end of the spectrum actually can and often do make the psychopath calculation and also from time to time engage in psychopath behaviors too (which might help explain why "normals" in groups can behave even more psychopath than individual psychopaths acting alone and why "normals" constantly follow psychopaths aa if they're allowing the psychopath to do their manipulating for them and constantly choose psychopaths to "lead" them) and turn it on or off based on the circumstances, but the clinical psychopath apparently can't genuinely ever make the "normal's" calculation that genuinely accounts for the existence of other humans as humans not objects or equal entities feeling same feelings, and instead is perpetually stuck in the psychopath mode like the gear shift broke off.

I think data showed that the most anti social boys, around 2 years old, showed primarily physical violence (kicking, biting, punching), and most of those things gets weeded out, because it's so on-the-nose. Girls tend to show reputation destroying behavior. Interestingly, when asked if she's dangerous, she talk about violence and not manipulation of someone else's reputation, which she earlier admitted was her modus operandi to the point she didn't know how to behave without doing it. For example, an anti social girl, my gf's niece is a sociopath, and she told everyone that her uncle (my gf's brother) beat her. The guy was wrecked. It got serious and he was facing serious consequences. It turned out she was lying. She was 13-14. It's extremely dangerous to be around. It's like my gf's brother is unarmed, and she's a snake he can't see. It's easily overlooked and subtle if you're not careful.

How is it narcissism? Wouldn't it be more related to a territorial/domination instinct? I am not a psychopath but I actually have experienced something similar to this. It feels very instinctual, like the instinct a social animal has to assert dominance over a lesser/weaker member of the group when they sense that that member is not acting in accordance with their strength and dominance capabilities. I've recognized the behavior in real life in chickens, dogs, and with humans. It's creepy to experience, because I'm philosophically very egalitarian.

My mom is a psychopath. She knows what's right and wrong on a logical level, but in the heat of the moment, she completely loses sight of it. When she makes the wrong call, it leaves you absolutely speechless. Sometimes, you wonder how someone could even come up with these scenarios-they seem almost stupid. For instance, she gave my dog away to a kill shelter because she didn’t like him much and thought I couldn’t take care of him due to some financial issues, even though I never had a problem with that. I had the dog for six years before she even met him, and she did this after only seeing him three times for five minutes each. I ended up breaking her 98-inch TV just to get her to tell me which shelter so I could get my dog back. The point is, you can't get too emotionally invested with people like this-they'll crush your soul. If you can understand that, you might be able to maintain some weird, distant respect for them. It takes her years to admit she’s wrong, and even then, I’m not sure she really believes it.

As a highly empathetic person myself, perhaps what someone would call an “empath” I don’t think empathy=goodness. There have been times where I have been very manipulative or overbearing to others, mostly when I was younger because of my high empathy, either by accident or on purpose, to sort of force them to feel better faster, because seeing someone in pain is too much for me sometimes. I am working on it now, and I do consider myself to be a good person. This is why I think ruling out people with ASPD as bad people is incorrect and damaging. My friends little sister has ASPD and she is not empathetic, but still good, and makes good choices simply because she knows it’s right. Empathy or lack thereof does not define whether or not someone is a good person, their actions and words do.

Most people who throw a punch in a fit of anger back off for fear of being hurt and they stop because they reach a level where they made their point known and going further could do permanent damage to the victim. My opinion is that females are much less likely to engage in violence than males are. She stated in an earlier interview that she has no interest in torturing or killing any creature. I relate it to people who think geniuses all become research scientists or phyiscists. The truth is that many of them become firefighters, ranchers, farmers, bartenders like all the rest of us do.

It is also very clear-headed, but it kinda tends to deconcentrate me from the social situation or my own social pleasures when it happens. And yet, I am not a psychopath, although I may have disturbed empathy, but it would mostly be caused by dissociation, and at times I do get out of this disconnection form my feelings, I no longer have some of these other problems that she's talking about on this channel too.

I think what she says in the beginning that if there were no rules, no laws, then "regular" people would engage in about as much violence as a psychopath doesn't really hold water for 2 reasons. First is empathy. I have engaged in violent activities and empathy has stopped me from continuing when I saw the suffering I had caused. Any more suffering after that point would have reflected in me too, so I couldn't continue. This also helped me stop myself other times before engaging in the violence, because I knew I wouldn't like the outcome. Second is that she feels no fear, as she said. If someone threatens her to beat her up she's like fine, I won't stop and I will go to any length. Someone who isn't a psychopath would know when to call it quits and move on unless it was deep personal hatred for someone, not escalate to infinity until violence breaks out. So no, I don't think we'd be as violent in a state of anarchy as they would.

I understand that they have a brain problem that inhibits them from feeling empathy. What I would like to know is how reason factors into their handicap. So for example, you may not naturally empathize with another human being, but you can reason that they have similar experiences to your own, and that if you want a certain kind of consideration from others, it would make sense to give back in kind.

Maybe that is exactly the affective empathy bit that is missing? I assume that you can also on a cognitive level understand that stuff like providing comfort, kindness, basic decency is sort of transactional because you observed that social pattern over time - but it may require an extra step and more (constant) awareness? Our affective empathy could be what keeps many of us in check most of the time because we kind of automatically imagine how others would feel in certain situations. And we don’t want that for them. Like, I can imagine scratching out my abuser’s eyes on an abstract level for a few seconds but I’d never actually physically harm them if given the chance because I don’t want anyone to suffer; it doesn’t erase my own suffering, after all. Just creates more suffering within them and myself and the world. But that’s the putting-oneself-in-other-folks’-shoes part that I suppose is missing in folks with psychopathy and NPD (?) Maybe? Don’t know though.

This is really cool and interesting to hear a psychopath's take on things. Also when she was taking about grey rage I could correlate things I've felt with that sense of not being able to control yourself when in that state of extreme anger or rage.

"i don't care if i get beat up" It's strange i thought psychopaths were concerned with self preservation?

Getting beat up isn't going to be the end of a psychopath, and if it is, the self preservation part comes when their entire being is truly threatened... In which case, they don't care about the death of said threat, even if they cause the death.

She explains it in another video that she can experience the adrenal "fight or flight" sensation in her body, she just doesn't experience it as fear. I imagine self preservation for her is a bit like playing a game - you try to win at monopoly, but you don't genuinely have that much emotional stake in the outcome

Psychopaths tend to have little sense of fear and anxiety about physical harm and death. It's because they are deficient in affective empathy. They usually don't feel strongly, in particularly not those kinds of emotions. They have a tendency to act without thinking about consequences, for themselves and others. That is precisely what makes them dangerous and so the harm they cause can be entirely unintentional. One psychopath talked about inviting his brother to visit a cave to collect bat poop. He didn't think to mention to his brother that he wanted to collect the bat poop because there was a disease there that is known to kill people. As a doctor, he was simply curious to study the infectious pathogen. It simply didn't concern him that it might kill both himself and his brother. But it's not like he had a death wish.

It's weird seeing someone finally explaining what my autistic self has been trying to explain about people. I find it hard to understand psychopathic thinking and living even though I'm almost always right there with her, just slightly more aware of the surroundings. I don't ever do anything like steal or hurt someone, not because I can't but because it seems like too much work. You have to think 15 steps a head and the worst part is the shame of being caught. I'm not heartless, but I do think that more people who are criminals are everyday people who are simply terrible and evil human beings. But they come in all forms, though it is more known that psychopaths can fall into that category... I do think that I would be more scared of a pathological liar or someone who uses anger or hate to justify their actions. This lady may be in the minority of her label, but I find it healthy to see this as she isn't low functioning which I think most killer psychopaths are, she is high functioning enough that she understands herself and can express herself in a way that neurotypicals can comprehend. That is highly admirational.

@apachehelicopter7625 Still, radically different to psychopathy, even sociopathy which is also an antisocial disorder is radically different to psychopathy. And is truly a serious mistake to even compare an autistic person with a psychopathic one. Should never been done, at all. Psychopathy is literally pure evil. Autism is affected nervous system that affects comunication and socialization, psychopathy is complete lack of empathy.

The difficulty of thinking multiple steps ahead for an autistic is caused by limited cognitive empathy. But a psychopaths deficiency is affective empathy, not cognitive empathy. It would take less effort for a psychopath, if they were motivated, to plan out an immoral course of action. And it's the psychopath's limited affective empathy that makes them potentially dangerous, if they ever do go down that path. The thing is that, like she explained, there is no particular reason most psychopaths would be generally inclined toward violence. It probably more has to do whether they grew up in violence, experienced it themselves, and had it modeled by others. Personally, as a general rule, I'd have more fear of those on the extreme end of Machiavellianism and narcissism, the other two of the Dark Triad traits.

@apachehelicopter7625 Yeah, autism is a spectrum and has lots of diversity. One thing I remember seeing once related to autism and empathy was, funnily enough, when I was researching about another condition: Williams Syndrome - the hyper-social disorder. People with williams are usually so friendly they can be easily manipulated or assaulted by ill-intended people. Apparently, Autism Spectrum Disorder and Williams Syndrome are frequently characterized as mirror conditions in the socio-cognitive domain, with ASD entailing restrictive social interests meanwhile WS exhibiting high sociability. And scientists have conducted studies that shown this parallel comes from a brain area (or a common genetic variant? I can't remember for sure) that is affected in different ways by both disorders. You can see autistic people with higher or lower empathy due to these differences.
