I’m joining another Asperger’s social group. With my bestie. If people like Mike, the chauvinist, Alex the dickhead, or Ben the stalker turn up there, how should I handle it? They’re all part of the Asperger’s community where I live and they all seem to hate me. I don’t hate them, but all of them make me feel awkward. But I could ignore them for a social group. How do I handle it sensibly?

If you are joining the social group with your bestie, it might be helpful to discuss your concerns with them beforehand. You can agree on how to handle the situation if any of those individuals you mentioned turn up.
One approach could be to simply avoid interacting with them and focus on enjoying the company of the other members. You could also consider speaking to the organizer of the social group and express your concerns about those individuals' behavior towards you.
It's important to remember that you have the right to feel comfortable and safe in social situations. If any of those individuals behave inappropriately towards you, don't hesitate to speak up and let them know that their behavior is not acceptable. If the situation becomes too uncomfortable, you can always consider leaving the social group or finding a different one that better suits your needs.
