So has 'autistic' basically just become a replacement for 'retarded' as an insult now because it's more topical?
It could be indeed, but I still believe the use is wrong in a recently modern context.

One of the most astounding characteristics of our current environment is the throwback to a group of people that enjoy a particular game, are mostly over 30, with disposable income and are fixated on aspects that I consider myself inadequate to enumerate, but the whole point lies there.

People here are fantastically inclined to deviate into this particular throng of beliefs that I find hard to conceptualize (for lack of a better word)

But it lies there, tantalizingly close yet hard to define, and I love it.

I believe we could use better terms, anything else is low hanging fruit, sour to some , sweet to others, but low hanging nonetheless.
