    I didn’t realize that an overly powerful sense of justice was a trait of autism until it was pointed out to me.

    Yep! I must have been unbearable to my allistic family. If we had guests over at our house, and my parents lied by saying that we do something we didn’t, I would straight up call it out in front of everyone and tell them that lying is bad.
