Does the aspie community have a term for their version of an Uncle Tom or a gusano or closet-gay homophobe or what have you, something like a term for high-functioning aspies in the "sunken place"? I guaran-fucking-tee at least some redditors who'd propose such a thing using a phrase like "put X out of their misery" are themselves both autistic and suicidal victims of Malthusian propaganda.
I've seen the terms "Uncle Tom aspies", "self-loathing" and "bootlicker" used. I also saw "Kapo" used once. Really any term used to describe a member of a marginalized group trying to convince their oppressors that they're One Of The Good Ones. I don't know of any specific term that only applies to the exact type of person you mention.
