i was diagnosed with aspergers at the age of 3 and i honestly agree, i have noticed that my face looks a lot like other autistic people and it doesnt help that people who do have autism, especially in my case, are emotionally stunted. we can understand emotions, just not connect them to situations. not to mention the lack of communication skills and how we dont really understand the concept of personal space (which ive worked on and have improved). a lot of autistic people also have a hard time showing facial expressions that match our emotions which doesnt help the stereotype that we're emotionless creatures. and about it being a death sentence, i agree as well. i will never have a successful job or have any relationship because of my autism (and i also have a facial deformity which doesnt help at all.). sometimes i just think about ending it early since im gonna die alone anyways.
