Australia & New Zealand deny immigrants with an autism diagnosis!
Source? Fucking wild
Any significant disability....
https://www.nytimes.com/2008/11/04/world/asia/04iht-doctor.1.17504311.html
Not defending the policy (it's indefensible) but as per that article there was a single case 20 years ago of a rejection because of Autism which was overturned. So I don't think it's fair to say Australia doesn't allow people with Autism diagnoses to immigrate.
Outliers are not the rule
There are rules (enforced) and there are rules (unenforced). This is still a bad rule, and needs to be fixed. But we can still acknowledge that they're doing a good thing by ignoring it.
