It's not just memes it seems that many autistic ppl love these entertainment franchises and have encyclopedic knowledge of its lore, characters, story, etc. And don't forget the fanfics, fanart and roleplay accounts.

Childlike interests because their mental development was stunted by autism and subhumanity.

Simple characterization, colorful and simplified reality, cute and loving fantasy girls, good vs evil is nice and black and white.

Autists love trains. Ig it's because it's a specialized microcosm which simplifies reality down to a more narrow range. You can find similar autists with other things but trains is a popular catagory.

Because for obsessive autists they literally make it their world.

Honestly I kind of wish I were a shameless autist like that. If I could just abandon reality and live in colorful, fun pony world I think I would be happier.

I was a brony when I was 13/14 (no wonder why I'm an incel kek) and I still like the franchise because of the good memories I have and how much I enjoyed it. However I'm 100% not autistic, confirmed by my cousin who has Aspies and is officially diagnosed.

Eh, autism is such a wishy washy thing anyway. We are all on the spectrum somewhere. But imo I just think it's good that people can enjoy whatever they want. If guys wanna watch pony cartoon I hope they have fun with it. If grown men want to be Marvel/Star Wars obsessed soyboys, I fully support that. Anyone who can find enjoyment in this shitty world is a winner in my eyes.

Probably the simplest is autists brains are like kids of the same age as those shows are made for.
