autistic when used as a pejorative doesn't mean a single specific thing. it's not a diagnosis, but you know it when you see it

Its mere existence in the DSM V is extremely controversial.

Honestly, as aspergers was amalgamated into the autism spectrum, so too should autism be annulled and amalgamated into another diagnosis. Specifically faecal encephalopathy. Would save a lot of paperwork.
