Something that ignorant pieces of crap think is just a fancy word for "retarded".
and I'm just gonna say something to those people.
WE'RE SMARTER THAN YOU.
I really don't get why these people are convinced it means "retarded"
especially considering that would be an accurate description of the people who think it.

Autism Or ASD is a disorder idc how it happens but lemme tell you how cool this is!! Dude I can fit SOOOOO much info in my brain I’m so good at spelling!!! I can also tell you the fnaf lore , the X-men lore, the quicksilver lore, the science behind why people are attracted to serial killers, random things I read when I was 6, and so much more!!!! People may think we’re stupid because we’re awkward but that’s a common misconception we just need a little more help sometimes! We’re actually smarter than the average neurotypical or ‘normal’ person. From your local autistic citizen
