It's most likely a combination of both and that is the best way to look at it in my opinion. He can be both a shitty person and autistic. He finished school and college, clearly he is capable of doing work and ideally he should have been given some job to do like warehouse work or something that limited his exposure to the public since someone with a lack of a verbal filter isn't something you want representing your business. I think being given free pass to just never have to do anything he didn't want to do ultimately made him go from just whiny/lazy to a full on consumer/coomer monster.

Some of the most absolutely brutal and vicious cunts I know are autistic. Dx'd as autistic.
I'm on the spectrum too ever so slightly (and not so slightly sometimes). So I can spot the 'tism in people even before they have been Dx'd.
One guy I know is a famous music producer. Very successful in his own way, except he fucking hates everyone and everyone hates him. He's a real fucking piece of work. A right nasty little cunt. And this is why he doesn't like anyone, and of course no one wants to know him because he's toxic. He recently got a Dx and is now all "THAT EXPLAINS EVERYTHING - I AM SPESHUL - EVERYONE ELSE WHO DOESN'T LIKE ME IS A BULLY".
No, you fucking faggot, the reason people don't like you is because you behave like a first rate cunt. You just happen to be autistic as well.
The fact you are autistic does not mean you necessarily have to be a cunt. Some people are just cunts, and they happen to be autistic as well. CWC falls in to this category, in my ever so (maybe not) expert opinion.
But it doesn't just stop there. You can be a cunt, happen to be autistic, and then have a fucking narcissistic personality on top. Hubris/pride/narcissism just makes that hot little cocktail a whole lot hotter. And again, in my very uninformed opinion, CWC suffers with this as well.
This won't end well for him. These are the good days. This story comes to an abrupt end before too much longer.
We are still in the dark ages with regard to putting people in to boxes via the fine art/science of psychology/psychiatry. CWC falls in to that bracket of 'Yet to be given a handle/box/name'. He's just too much of a headfuck to contemplate when we are still trying to figure out the other stuff.
He also falls in to that bracket of "I've been DX'd as autistic so I will use that as a crutch/excuse for whatever heinous shit I end up doing, because I am just a narc cunt that can not feel emotions for another human being".
Lots of autistic people have empathy and theory of mind. CWC is not one of them.
