>Why does it seem related to autism.
Because it was invented in a 4chan thread as a deliberate attempt to create a new genre. It's a "forced meme" that went too far.

The emotional inflection of the music. Vaporwave is trying to evoke shallow consumerist culture.
>Why is it related to abandoned malls?
Because abandoned malls represent shallow consumerist culture.

Music that is shallow and meaningless. It's the musical embodiment of everything cheesy about capitalist society. It's popular because of our yearning for a happy go lively life style we had before 9/11.
