Autistic people were never thought to lack emotions, in fact many complain about feeling too intense emotions. The article is garbage.

Read the article, not the parent poster's mischaracterization of it. The very first paragraph explains the autism+emotion issue.

Also your own sources contradict the claim "Autistic people were never thought to lack emotions".
