Wow, what the fuck? :/ Okay, to be fair I can see people feeling like autism is a challenge because it's so real and might hit close to home for readers, but that's still no excuse. If anything that should be all the MORE reason for authors to try harder to write autistic characters who aren't all like Susan Felder or Uncle Adam.
