I'm not going to be long-winded when I can get an entire point across with a single word that has medical facts backing it.

And again you conflate race with disease. Are black people just a disease to you?

Maybe you should quit whole you're ahead. You keep comparing known symptoms of a disease to racial stereotypes, and it just won't look good no matter how you do it.

The only way what I said can be interpreted that way is if you believe that autistic people are just a disease to you, I made no mention about autistic people being just a disease, I said autism was a trait that people are born with, much like being black is a trait you're born with.

I'm talk about known symptoms of a known disease, and you're conflating it with racial stereotypes. You're either flying in the face of medical facts and saying autistic behavior can be fully controlled, or you're being a bigot and saying black people can't help but act stereotypical.
