The person in the story may not be my patient but I've been around the block enough times to understand WHY it is being thought that he is incapable of moral reasoning. I can speak to that subject without being a doctor. A doctor also in all honesty would almost certainly have less expertise in the subject than myself unless they were psychologists or similar. I feel compelled to speak on the subject because the general attitude that autistic people are fundamentally amoral, fundamentally incapable of knowing right from wrong leads to stigma and mistreatment while not actually being true. The very idea that you have to consult a doctor to judge if an autistic person, not the highest functioning but far from the lowest, is capable of moral reasoning is an idea that leads to stigma and "othering" and exclusion and dehumanization. If I come off as aggressive it's because I see your beliefs as personally threatening.
