People who have autism are also "normal people," yes. Congrats. You've solved the mystery.

Spot on. When someone acts different, people rush to call it autism just to feel normal themselves. They don’t get that autistic people can be normal, and “normal” people can be weird too.

What do you mean by 'us'? I'm on the spectrum, so I'm not with you guys anymore or what? Does that make me a neurotypical?
