You're the one conflating all petulant and childish behavior with autism. I don't behave this way and my neither does my equally autistic partner, so is "stable and mature" behavior also autistic?

Trouble regulating emotion is a very common autistic trait. It's also considered "petulant and childish" in the eyes of NTs. And that's exactly what I'm seeing in his response to having his trust betrayed.

We're not mocking him for showing autistic traits. We're mocking him for displaying freeze-gamer traits.

I have explained elsewhere how it is an autistic trait.
