Since he's still buttmad over things that occurred 30 years ago, I'd say he's got an issue with letting go.

Holy shit, that's beyond autism.
That's because self-diagnosis is bullshit. Sorry but it is. You are not capable of determining your status because of cognitive bias.
Letter to the editor: Technology not to blame, people are
- 8 hrs ago
Editor:
I am writing in reply to Sid Gordon’s letter of Feb. 21 in regard to electronics.
I think what Mr. Gordon — and others who are critical of technology — forget is that technology in of itself is neither good nor evil; it’s the intentions of those who use it that make it either good or evil. Take social media, for instance. Many people who have not had a voice in the past, especially those who are disabled, have been empowered by Facebook and Twitter. I especially point out the efforts of disabled rights advocate Lydia X. Z. Brown (whom I follow on Facebook) as an example.
However, on the opposite side of the coin, there are trolls and cyberbullies who have been empowered by such sites as Encyclopedia Dramatica and Kiwi Farms to persecute people who are “different” like the disabled, minorities, the LGBTQIA community and so forth (such as their continued persecution of Christine Weston Chandler and Kevin Healey, to give two examples). The proliferation of “fake news” has not helped matters, either.
This is why we do need to update the woefully outdated laws we have in regard to libel, slander and defamation of character in this country and also create an international treaty to prevent sites like Encyclopedia Dramatica and Kiwi Farms from going from country to country to elude being held accountable for their actions.
I would highly recommend watching “The Soul Sever” episode of the 2011 version of Thundercats since it brilliantly portrays how it is so much the use or misuse of technology that can paint people’s impressions of it, for good or bad. In this case, it can be said that technology doesn’t harm people — it’s those who use it for bad purposes who do.

The REMAKE of Thundercats, which means he watched it, a children's cartoon, as an adult, not the original back when he was a kid.Nothing says "I am a serious person to be taken seriously" than ending a letter to the editor with Thundercats. That certainly doesn't say "I am a ridiculous exceptional autist who probably deserves to be made fun of online."

He graduated from high school in 1987, when the original Thundercats was still in its second season.
