I think there's a connection between autistic intolerance for falsehood and the right wing's genocidal hatred of autistics.
See, conservative life functions on lying -- you lie about everything, to everyone, and they play along to protect their lies, and so on. You can do whatever you want as long as you don't get caught.
To a large percentage of autistics, the presence of so many lies in such a small space is anathema -- we are chronically addicted to the truth, to the point where someone who is obviously lying about something makes us physically uncomfortable.
We are also frequently hyper-perceptive -- we will spot the inconsistency between word and deed, and we will call it out, which is lethal to the whole conservative social contract.
They respond to us being essentially walking lie detectors by painting us as the flawed ones, the defective ones, the ones to be exterminated. Don't listen to him, he's the victim of vaccines or adrenochrome or whatever it is they're blaming this week.
