  • I think it is plain stupid.

    Autism is a condition, still very much under study, but already well understood enough to teach people what does in fact imply to be autistic.

    Other words that started as medical terms - imbecile, idiot, retard, etc - were readily abused and turned into insults because, as I understand it, there was not the same degree of understanding and popularization of the subjects towards the open society in order to avoid basterdizing the scientific knowledge.

    What you describe, plainly put, is dehumanizing.
