> but lupus was called "immune system disorder", Well, worse than that, even.. it would be like "immune systemism" (with "disorder" being implied). The ambiguity and implication in the article's title is very unfortunate. As you point out, what the article documents as being treated is not autism itself (which may not even be a single "thing"), but, rather, specific disorders that are strongly correlated with what is identified as autism. More importantly, though, the treatments all seem (admittedly subjectively) like empowerment and skills training, and less like brainwashing or coercion into "normal" behavior.
