#i saw a couple of comments on a post that was pathologising allistic people the same way they pathologise autistic people
neurotypicals: *spend hundreds of years excluding and alienating neurodivergent people from society*
neurotypicals: *invent stories about their neurodivergent children being mythical creatures because they can't comprehend a human that isn't normal*
neurotypicals: *create harmful stereotypes about neurodivergent people that have become popular belief to the point that if we correct people on it they think we're wrong*
neurotypicals: *literally try to prevent neurodivergent people from existing*
neurotypicals: *treat us as if we're not even people*
neurodivergent people: *make a very obvious joke to counteract this treatment and show how silly it is*
neurotypicals: nooooo we're not all like that! you're spreading misinformation about us! we're the victims!
