Fuck you assholes downvoting him and fuck your “cures”.
Autism is far more widespread than the severe edge cases you get so worked up about. If you were ever successful in “curing” it I doubt humanity would last another generation.
You want to know what advice I’d give a young autistic person? It wouldn’t be “social skills” or how to mask better.
It would be: “It’s not your fault they live like this.”

I am an autistic person with autistic kids. Unfortunately? I HAVE to teach them to mask. Survival skills, my friend.
I love the people they are and the people they will become, but I know they will have to live in a world that views the way they are as disabled, and they will have to function within that world.

why are you jumping to the conclusion that all people with autism will soon be forced against their will into pressure chambers?
