The only people here who find this offensive are either autistic themselves or have an autistic relative. If these things would not be true, then absolutely no one would be complaining about this lol.
that's a weird assumption
no one in my family is autistic, and if any of my relatives are they haven't told me; but i am absolutely against people using gay, handicapped, autistic, or any of the like as an insult.
even whether it's talking to people face to face or on the internet, i don't ever recall a time i have ever called any one person a name like that unless i was joking.
