The particular trope it embodies is "Arsehole redeems themselves by not being a total arsehole to one person".

It's a bit like filming yourself giving a coin to a beggar.

Something like this would infuriate the "autism is made up" brigade then:

A heritage railway centre has held an event to mark World Autism Awareness Day - offering families the chance to enjoy a quiet and safe day out.

Nene Valley Railway (NVR), near Peterborough, welcomed visitors on Thursday from across the UK as part of the event, which aimed to support people with visible and hidden disabilities.

Families were able to travel on the Thomas stream [sic] train, which ran between Wansford and Yarwell in Cambridgeshire, as well as a range of other activities.
I think the NVR has Autism Awareness events at other times of the year too.

Despite our Brexit freedoms, which should have instilled a new spirit of self-determination and pride

Dickie did some research this week, managing to find some Daily Mail output from WW2 that wasn't "problematic". When it comes to accusing others of picking the wrong side, I wouldn't go to the Mail archives.
