Why are most of my followers autistic? Seriously, the majority of them are autists, they literally have "autistic" in their bio. Not only that but their art is also obviously autistic. Some even have video or audio and their voices sound like they have special needs.
It's really starting to get to me. Am I an autist too?

depends on the art
I do fandom romance art and pinups for an older cartoon, and most of my followers are like 13-14yo girls but also most of them are latino (or spanish speaking but dunno from where) and I think it's because these older cartoons are often still on tv in their countries
NOT my target audience but it is what it is

OP is gonna have to deliver at some point. Maybe do a quick drawing of a typical post you'd make just for this thread.
Off the top of my head, if you do art for a fandom, it could be that the fandom is autistic. You might just have a particularly autistic way of creating your art though, like if your stuff isn't drawn that well but it features characters in weird situations, or if you've got a weird niche like anthro WW2 airplanes or something. Basically if you do art that makes a normally unfappable thing fappable, you are going to get the autists.

Instead of trying to fight it, try making your art even more appealing to autistic people. Cater to the audience you are aqcuiring naturally yields more gains. Draw furshit.

It's a well known and accepted fact that an artist's fans are just shittier versions of themselves. Even if they're the same age or older, your fans will almost always lag behind you developmentally in virtually every respect. You create things they are absorbed by BECAUSE you are beyond them creatively, yet still making things that appeal to their taste. I think there's a psychospiritual component to this phenomena as well. It's as though your followers are the embodiments or karmic avatars of the spiritual burdens that you have jettisoned in pursuit of your current position in time and space. This is why every artist that looks at the art of their most sociable fans recoils in horror at the warped, mutated monstrosities that bear their rough likeness yet none of their nobility. It's as if you were a King with an inbred son. Their flaccid limp dicked existences repulse you on a visceral level because although you have become a powerful and proud erect penis, they, in their dysfunctional and wrinkled chub forms, are painful reminders of what you were or might have been.

This means that yes, you are probably an autist. However, you are a more evolved form. A select few of those autists who follow you may one day evolve into something more like yourself, however by that time you also will have transcended your current self with all of your unaware cringiness and telegraphed autistic tendencies. Thus, no matter who you are, if you have a follower, you will always look at those who admire you and scoff. This is yet another one of many reasons why artist's are never happy. They cannot respect their fans as equals in any regard. It's impossible. This is the nature of the game.

If it bothers you and hurts your ego to be surrounded by retards, just remember that they're just you minus ten + years of experience and development.

This is true outside of the elitist energy it exudes. You can have artists who are far more skilled than you be a fan. I do share interests with my fans but I won't demean or block anyone. I do follow people back if they have
>Similar interests
>Apolitical
>Don't tweet too often
>A good attitude
You could be beg for all I care but if you're a genuinely cool person, I'll follow you back. So many high and mighty artists are just
>Miserable and unfun to be around.
>Tweet way too fucking much
>Feed into the Twitter hive mind and bring up shit no one cares about and go on crusades
Places like Twitter is where it's hard to seperate the art from the person. But ultimately this is all a no brainer
>I like drawing big butts and boobs
