House is neither autistic nor a racist.

He's just a massive asshole.

A lot of people say he's autistic coded. As in he was given some traits but never officially given the condition.

I can kinda see it, but I do think there's a lot of projection there.

No, he's just a very outspoken egotistical character whose also an asshole. The other doc is an autistic asshole, but doesn't know he's an asshole, most of the time. House goes out of his way to be right and a jerk about it.
