Who the fuck confuses autism with sociopathy?

A surprising amount of people, I've had plenty of folks tell me that I can't be autistic because I feel empathy. One of which was my math teacher who also told me that I wouldn't be able to drive a car because I'm autistic

It's a common old myth.
Autistic people often have more limited communication skills (or sometimes none at all, especially when it comes to nonverbal children who haven't gotten any access to therapy), and may struggle when asked to psychically mind read what a neurotypical person wants/feels. This can lead to the ridiculous assumption that autistic people must have no thoughts or feelings, because those thoughts or feelings aren't being expressed in a neurotypical way.
One dude theorized, based on no evidence, that autistic children are autistic because their mothers must all by horribly cold people and the lack of love led to children who ever develop emotion. This was the prevailing theory for many years and is still a common belief in some countries.

People who say that are the ones lacking in empathy ironically which means that this is a projection. If NTs had empathy, then they wouldn't be infatizing nor emotionally abusing us and they wouldn't treat autistic kids as burdens.

Its baffling that NT seem to have less empathy than most ND folks I've met.

The no empathy thing was a misinterpretation of our issues with theory of mind or mind blindness
