If capital cannot profit off of you, it will kill you. Autistic people tend to be bad at the wage work capital demands of us - hence why so many of us are chronically unemployed.
It is impossible to overstate the extent to which neurotypical people see us as objects of disgust and contempt. It’s super-common even for progressive and allegedly leftist spaces to treat us as subhuman. I don’t expect them to put up much resistance on our behalf and presumably neither does capital.
But we also tend to be very good at doing the work capitalism demands of us. Thats why at 6 years old they pulled me aside in class to give me harder math and say “You should be an engineer” a thousand times.
It’s not even a problem of capitalism, it’s a problem of distribution and not putting autistic people in roles they can perform well.

This is an important point. We should remember that this means that the most realistic worse-case model they have to cleanse us en masse is corporate private prison contracting where some Trump friendly dipshit gets $25k/per body a month from the Fed to warehouse us in a concrete tomb.
They cannot kill us cheaply and we aren’t actually a balance sheet problem because there is realistically social spending for the majority of us. They’ll starve all disabled and poor people before they single us out in any effective way. We might be a trial balloon, but it’s extremely unlikely that we’ll get it nearly as bad as migrants.
Autism is just a political talking point for their shit for brains NT base who doesn’t want to be shown anything on the TV except their own shallow world view, and for the people who they talk about the TV with in public to never tell them the TV is wrong. We’re just a means to an end, effectively to get society to agree to the fact that kids should die of measles.
America in 2025 is utterly incapable of mega-projects like Japanese internment, the government has been too hollowed out. They spent $1.1 billion in 2025 dollars in the 1940’s just to build the camps alone using the US Army Corps of Engineers, the CCA and WRA. They were mostly public works. Doing something of this size is going to be a major in-fight between oligarchs on who gets this money, and it won’t be $1.1 b done over a year, it will balloon to hundreds of billions and be stuck in development hell because of all the inefficiencies.
A single prison today typically costs $1b. For example Indiana is currently building a new prison for $1.2 that holds 4,200 people. They started in 2023, they’re expected to finish in 2027.
Don’t get me wrong people will be hurt, but we are so laughably incapable of 20th century style population transfers.
