澳大利亚新纳粹分子可能在积极招募自闭症年轻男性1。这一现象引发学界对自闭症人士在面对极端主义威胁时脆弱性的关注。不过研究者指出，虽然发现了自闭症特征与在线极端主义风险之间的联系证据有限，充分的实证研究基础仍然不足1。
研究表明，自闭症本身并非直接的风险因素1。自闭症人士通常存在固定兴趣、刻板思维以及对秩序和可预测性的偏好等特点1。真正使某些自闭症人士容易被极端招募者利用的，是社会孤立、缺乏支持和被排斥的经历1。自闭症儿童和青少年比其他人更容易遭受欺凌和排斥，因而经历更深的孤独感1。绝大多数自闭症人士不会参与极端主义活动1。
针对这一风险，研究建议通过针对性支持和早期干预来应对1。为高危自闭症青少年提供专业支持，可以改善其福祉、帮助建立更强的人际关系，并使其远离激进思想1。政府建议公众通过"Step Together"网站了解更多关于识别极端主义迹象和获取帮助的信息1。
Research has raised concerns that neo-Nazi recruiters in Australia may be actively targeting autistic young men, prompting investigation into whether autistic individuals face heightened susceptibility to extremist content 1. However, scholars emphasize that autism itself is not a risk factor; rather, social isolation, lack of support systems, and experiences of exclusion create conditions that some autistic individuals may be exploited by extremist recruiters 1.
The evidence base for a direct connection between autism characteristics and online extremism risk remains limited, with researchers noting insufficient empirical research to establish firm causation 1. Autistic individuals often exhibit fixed interests, rigid thinking patterns, and preferences for order and predictability 1. Compounding these vulnerabilities, autistic children and adolescents experience higher rates of bullying and social rejection than their peers, resulting in heightened feelings of isolation 1.
Despite these concerns, researchers stress that the vast majority of autistic people do not engage in extremist activities 1. Targeted professional support for at-risk autistic youth can improve wellbeing, strengthen genuine social connections, and distance them from radical ideologies 1. Authorities recommend consulting the "Step Together" website for guidance on recognizing signs of extremism and accessing support resources 1.
