Comment Comment by nyanmatt “With autism”A large portion of the autistic community is very against this phrasing. Autism is not a disease you carry, or something you “have”.It should be used as an adjective to describe a person:“Autistic people less likely to succumb to bystander effect”Edit: If you follow through to the actual paper referenced you can see they use the correct phrasing. parent nyanmatt 3 years ago
