    I just want to point out that it was you who took “autistic” as an insult, when there was no such negative connotation in the original comment.

      I did not take “autistic” as an insult. I took “This entire group is so autistic they don’t understand emotions” as an insult. Probably has something due to the fact that people have used autistic as an insult quite a bit. That and I have literally never heard someone say "this entire group is so autistic they " and it be anything other than an insult.
