I’m not sure if is just me but it trully does seem that the prevalence of neurodiversity in places like this is way higher than in the average population.

My best bet is that the politically-left encourages a mindset, that revolves around openness (in the sense of communism), creativity (queerness) and a great ability to think in equilibriums and equations (and Zen-Buddhism), rather than progress and advances. That leads to natural tendencies like math (I see a lot of queer people also study math) and FOSS rather than money-making enterprise.
