I’d submit that perhaps those on the autistic spectrum may be more resistant to tribalism, not because they are less aware, but because they are more aware. The masses who blindly follow their tribe are the one’s that don’t seem to be aware they are in a sort of socialogical slavery.

“If tribalism was actually unhealthy, it would be lost by evolution like any other complex adaptation.”
Have you considered that may very well be what is happening? After all, someone on the spectrum is now the richest person in America, has run circles around NASA’s space program, has single-handedly put self-driving cars on the map, seems to be the only person on earth making strides toward off-planet colonization, and is single-handedly restoring freedom of speech to the United States. Sounds like maybe evolution is kicking in 😂.
