Oh.
As always, I went off what the submitted wrote in their submission, which was that Cassandra is mute. I have not read the comics, so I wouldn’t know the details of her disability, and took this in good faith.
If Cassandra makes it into the next round, I’ll change the poll header from saying she has mutism to saying that she has a learning disability.
Also, Geordi and Cassandra were only matched up on terms of how this competition works (in this case, third showdown of bracket 1 faces third showdown of bracket 2), and not to compare their disabilities. As my introduction post says, this competition is about people’s opinions about the character, not the quality of representation or the validity of the character’s disability.
I’ve tried to be as upfront about this as possible to avoid any confusion, so sorry if I come off as aggressive or blunt, that was not my intention.
Thank you for bringing this inaccuracy to my attention!

Hi! I’ve never actually watched Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure, but the submitter asked if I could include him on this account, and my thought process is that if a character makes people feel seen, that should be acknowledged and celebrated. Plus, when I googled the name and autism/autistic, many results came up with people declaring this headcannon, so it seems like a rather popular thing.
