I wouldn’t know how it feels. I get your point tho, people with autism are just normal people like everyone else and i think u can stand up for yourself if needed but in case you need help I will help u and will stand up for you.
But I also think this “standing up” happens without even thinking about it properly. If you are my friend and someone makes a joke about you having autism I would automatically counter attack them with a reply. Just make it clear to people that you don’t want their protection and you can stand up for yourself.
