As FrenchTouch said, admins can block people for whatever reason they like, including no reason. Staff won't interfere, only local admins can unblock him. If you want to tell this to Staff, use Special:Contact/general.

We don't know what wiki this took place on, or which events preceded the block. So it's pointless for me to offer any specific advice other than above. Some context, though. Admns are volunteers, and they do not have any training to deal with learning difficulties, ASD, et cetera.

I've had several situations where, after problematic communication with a user, I get "the A bomb" dropped on me. And I still don't know what to do with it. It might explain a lot, but does it excuse it? And what are the chances there will be improvement in the future?

Since ASD is in my family, I asked Staff to make a blog on tips for admins how to deal with situations like this. But because staff doesn't have the necessary medical skill and there are about as many types of autism as there are autistic people, that hasn't come yet.
