Because being autistic still means that someone's brain works differently, which can be an important part of their identity. Also, approaches that NTs use and suggest to cope with things don't always work with autistic people, and NTs don't always have the same problems, so it can be useful to have autistic resources and spaces that address those differences.
(OP: tell me if I'm out of line. I don't want to talk over you or try to speak for you.)

It is a disorder. If it's not, why even bring it up?

So it's still a disorder. Why get all pissed off about it? I'm sure almost everyone here has some sort of disorder.
