Do autists realize when they're talking over people and going on and on about their interests with a disregard for the other person?

no, i always feel bad about it when i realize after the fact & would try to stop if someone pointed it out in the moment

So normies can talk about their interests and passions all the time because they are fashionable and popular and expect autists to try and take an interest in it too, but when autists do it it is the absolute worst thing in the world and they are bad people for bringing it up?

N*rmies are literally evil and don't even realize it.

Be self-aware of everything you talk about and one will notice. The problem is that the other person expects a conversation, not a math problem. Expressing yourself in a non-assertive manner is your only option, and others will only see you as dull and tame, even though you have tons of emotions inside of you.

I pinpoint the other person's interests and ask questions about it. People are eager to talk about what they're interested in because they don't often have to opportunity to do it and then the conversation autopilots. Just ask them questions.
