Hello, hello! Younger autistic person here! I haven’t seen the term Asperger’s used so frequently before, I was under the assumption that it was outdated. From what I’ve read, Asperger was dubiously ethical at best. He was an Austrian physician who referred autistic children to the Am Spiegelgrund clinic, who was responsible for 789 child euthanasia cases during World War Two. We don’t know if he knew that when referring kids there, or if he did it on purpose, though. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hans_Asperger
