its institutional oppressions, because its not just individual people within the system but the system as a single unit ignoring issues based on races/gender etc.

i think ability/disability is definitely within the conversations about feminism and diversity, i just think its focus has to be from a feminists perspective. how autism affects the life of women and limits them is in my opinion a very interesting subject to talk about here
