You say nutter, I say neurodivergent. I think there is a lot more truth than you think to your first statement! I have a hypothesis that neurodivergent people are overrepresented at the highest levels of government, finance, technology, etc, and that this has probably been the case for, most of human history. Part of the (extremely justified) complaints about the rich and powerful is that they're "not like us", and I think that's true in more ways than one!
