Image of Neurotypical Brain Compared to an Autistic Brain

The Autcast shared this photo on Facebook. I loved it so I copied it here.

The image below shows a typical brain on the left and an autistic brain on the right. I find the autistic brain to be more organized and beautiful. It looks healthier to me. The typical brain looks scattered and disorganized.

One thing I am not sure about is  whether these are supposed to be viewed as mirror images, or is the autistic brain really wired backwards when compared to a typical brain.
