Very true as autisim which aspergers is part of spectrum wise are classified as learning disabilities and with that mean that the capacity to empathise is there, just not as quick at learning those aspects. A psycopath on the other hand can clearly see those connections and empathise, its just that they don't care too and do not see why they should. Think of it as comparing somebody with a broken leg who finds it hard to walk in contrast to somebody who has fully working legs but sees no point in walking.

the broken leg and walking analogy is quite cool!
