This post from the UK claims that 3.5 million UK residents are either “on the spectrum” or live with someone who is. … You might wonder if they’re confusing independent thinkers with autistics.

Whatever the word ‘autism’ once used to mean, today ‘autistic’ has become a political cussword used to describe “any person who displays self-directed behavior” and “who refuses to follow the rules imposed by a state authority”.
