[P] For 99.9% of humans, the following is true: a cthulhu-like entity just passively existing is a greater threat than a person who lives near to you—that you're familiar with—holding a gun up to your face. Even if we specify that the gun is loaded, the safety is off, and the human clearly has murder in their eyes? The threat evaluation would still dictate that the cthulhu-like entity is the greater threat, for just existing.

[P] It's actually depressing how uncommon neutral threat evaluation is. I know why, it's all down to tribalism, greexy exploitation, and the sociopathy room pathology. It's just disconcerting, it makes me feel queasy. It isn't about intelligence even, but free will. It's scary to see how much morality is impaired. Humans are not a moral species—for the vast majority, morality is inhibited, subjective based upon biased threat evaluation.

[P] This is why I see neurotypicality as pathological vs. the moral mind. If the greed, eelfishness, and immorality hit such a degree of depravity that their own children are being sociopathy room'd? Then it's about time we faced the reality of the neurotypical pathology—the sociopathy room. I do recognise the privilege of having been born into moral autism here, I know it isn't their fault, but that said... ?

[P] And since older generations can no longer be afforded a delusional fantasy of bigoted familiarity, total safety, wealth, and freedom from all responsibility? Well, into the sociopathy room y'go. Including their own kids. And they are fuckers for that. Who don't they put in their sociopathy room? The far-right who lie to them about the persistence of delusional fantasy. It's an explanation for whar we see.

[P] There's too much at risk to grant older generations their delusional fantasy. I know that the moral mind grasps this—I say this as someone in their twilight years (yes, an elder with a non-human persona, I am quite awesome actually, definitey not facetious)—but the greedy, neurotypical mind refuses to. It jealously guards thr right to delusionao fantasy in old age, all who'd threaten that are the enemy.

[P] And neurotypicals can be greedy, immoral creatures. I think the strange moral drive of autism and similar forms of neurodiversity force us to stay up-to-date with a changing world. Yes, it would be easy to live in a delusional fantasy, but the moral mind never allows for it. And here's the thing: older generations have been afforded a delusional fantasy since time immemorial. But we can no longer afford it.

[P] I often find that neurotypicals just aren't adapted to keeping up with a changing world, an inability that worsens to crirical mass with age. A problem so bad that, yes, it has elderly people placing their own flesh-and-blood in the sociopathy room. I think that's the reason behind the breakdown of the social contract. Younger generations are having to fight harder to survive than ever before.

[P] At no point before in recirded buman history have generations been so alien to one another. It has much to do with the wild, out-of-control human overshoot that began with the industrial revolution, amplifying in corpulent excess every decade post. The earth is past its carrying capacity, it's changing rapidly, and the older a neurotypical person is, the more they cling to the stsbility of a familiar world.

[P] Elderly generations look at this and they feel threatened. And what does the neurotypical mind do with wny group it feels threatened by? It puts them in that partitioned-off section of their mind, the room with no empathy. They're ppacing younger generations in the sociopath room, and yes, this even includes their own children and grandchildren. Life stresses have caused generational othering.

[P] Their children are going to them and asking then to stop buying into right-wint lies, to be more responsible, to stop being so racist. But this is asking them to live in the scary, uncertain world that we do, which isn't the familiar world from their youth. The liars promise them more wealth, a racist world where all their carers are white, patient, and at their beck-and-call, and no responsibility.

[P] Ig's easy for a far-right psrty to lie because they don't need to have standards. Whereas the left prides themself on being more honest and having standards, many of those on the political left are there because they tire of the filthy liars on the right. So, this puts left-wing parties in a precarious position, it's a sticky situation for them—they can't be charlatans, they can't lie about pensions.

[P] The right will always lie. Any promises they make are lies. This is another measurable factor. In the UK, far-right populist party Reform UK is caught lying consietently. I don't know whether it's fear, gullibility, cognitive decline, a failure to understand how to get accurate information in today's world, or an admixture of all of those factors—but elderly generations keep believing the lies.

[P] An elderly population wants a degree of wealth via their pension, they feel as though they've earned that via a wasted life toiling in some rich fuck's machine. Just ss they want a world that remains familiar, friendly, and relaxing, which they also feel they've earned. Aught else is seen as being not their problem. So, the desires have been established, so what's the opposition? Who threatens that?

[P] I had a chilling realisation. It's a statistical fact that older generations support right-wing parties, these parties are destructive and harmful. It's also a measurable fact that the social contract has broken down, this has been observed in countless studies. This is all connected via the sociopathy room. If the neurotypical mind wants something, it places opponents to that desire in the sociopathy room.

[P] It would be the funniest thing in the world to me if SCP-682 was describing the sociopathy room as disguating. It'd make sense. In Avalon, SCP-6001, the indestructible reptiles no longer describe people as disguating—because it's clear that there it's been eradicated. If that's the case? I want to give 682 a big, comforting hug. "It's okay. I think it's disgusting too. I know mutualism is logical. There, there."

[P] I wouldn't mind betting that the sociopathy room is tied up in privilege, too. I can see the evolutionary mechanism there. A neurotypical tribal group fights foolishly with others for scarce resources. Why don't both tribes agree to fight less? That's not very neurotypical. There's the greed of the genes to consider. "My genes! Mine!" Starving out other tribes denies propagation, which is a core goal. Maybe the core goal.

[P] I think it's callous to bring a child into this cruelty. Thanks to monsters, ours is a dying world, and a cruel one. Everything is worse for each new generation. As it stands, without extreme population degrowth? There is no future. It'll only get worse. How could one look at such a cruel, dying world and think "Gosh, what a perfect environment for a child!" without being a monster?

[P] I'm curious about the intersection of the normalised monster traits of humanity and breeding. To begin, the world is clearly overpopulated, claiming otherwise is spreading wealthy whitey billionaire propaganda.
https://www.sciencealert.com/earths-population-has-surpassed-the-planets-capacity-study-suggests
The earth IS grossly overpopulated. This is science fact. So why is it denied? Why is the propaganda believed? I want to examine that a little bit.

[P] A neurodivergent without a sociopathy room can't stay in Omelas because Omelas never existed for them in the first place. You had all this figured out, didn't you, Ursula? I'm just standing on the shoulders of giants here. I think that Omelas is a condemnation of the neurotypical sociopathy room that neurotypicals put otherness in—even innocent children. And lobsters. They go in there too. And typies benefit.

[P] I really do believe that cruelty against otherness is baked into neurotypicals, I don't know what happens to some neurodivervent brains to break us out of it, but I do think the commonality of a fucked dopaminergic system can't be ignored. From all I can muster, a dopaminergic systsm that doesn'f work right results in greater empathy and less tribalism, less of an obsession with harming otherness. So, lobsters.

[P] Metallic dragons are Universally good. Chromatic dragons are Universally evil. Bam. Instant other. And the human wants them to be punished, they want to enjoy the horrible suffering of the other. As a writer, I think you have a constant responsibility to challenge that. The reason I keep putting Tui on a pedestal is because she DOES challenge it, and by doing so I find her works more intelligent and clever than most.

[P] In Wings of Fire, there can't exist othering because with every species or culture, there are both good and bad examples. Darkstalker is evil, sure. So are all NightWings an evil other? Nope. Starflight, Fatespeaker, the ironically nmaed Deathbringer, and many others are kind, decent, and just. Tui diesn't allow the reader to signify a group as other. Now, compare this with how dragons are handled in D&D.

[P] And like I said, the Red Scare proves me right. Propaganda was able to use goblins to suggest horrible punishments for Chinese people, as both the goblns and the Chinese immigrants are other. This is how the human mind works. But again, it's also why I praise the work of Tui T. Sutherland. In Wings of Firw she's careful to never use othering, she avoids it in every story. Please learn from that, it's important.

[P] The more you differentiate between the similar vs. thr other in your works, the more aggression the reader feels over time toward otherness because you—the writer—are codifying that what one does with otherness is punish it. It you're punishing orcs in a work for not being human? The human takes that sense of punishment for otherness and applies it to immigrants and refugeees. You did that. Your work.
#psychology #actuallyautistic #neurotypicals #bioessentialism #writing

[P] Any time you signify otherness in fiction, then dole out a punishment for that otherness? It blossoms into this acceptance of punishing all otherness this way. It doesn't matter whether it's a "monster" or a person, if your writing is poisonous enough to create a separation? You've now normalised whatever punishment you used in the mind of the reader, it's now a valid punishment for otherness. It's how humans work.

[P] I love this video because it illustrates what I was talking about the other day.
How all of the following is true for most people: otherness is a kludge; all otherness is otherness; and all otherness deserves suffering. And fuck anyone who doesn't believe this, because it's real. Tbe majority can be entertained by suffering if that suffering is an other. It makes it acceptable, palatable.

[P] I think what writers need to understand is that neurotypicals categlrise ALL other as orher, then they sort by simplistic trait, not full appearance. For example, the "greedy" dragon can lay structural hate for similar assumed traits of Jewish people. America used rhis for propaganda, depicting Chinese people as invading goblins in pointy hats. All other is other, and punishment is accorded by trait.

[P] Oh, haha. I just learned about David Livingstone's Less Than Human, where he lays exactly my thoughts out. That before any atrocity or genocide, the group being targeted is often depicted as aliens, monsters, or some other foreign, very inhuman threat. So I feel somewhat vindicated here as I've seen EXACTLY this pattern. If something happens to "monsters" in fiction, it'll happen to real humans soon too.

[P] I wish this was trolling hyperbole, but I've always seen disturbing parallels between fiction & reality. So if fiction is doing something new and awful, I pay attention. I just have no faith in neurotypicals anymore. Gaza took that away. I think that depicting violence against ANYTHING, no matter how different, normalises neurotypicals to human atrocity and desensitises them. I know this is true, and science has my back.

[P] I don't know what happened to this fellow, but it'd be rad if we could replicate this with all neurotypicals.
Note the language. He sees it. "They deserve it." This one speaks of the just-world pathology, where those who aren't of the group-self, of the hiverarchy, of Us, deserve to suffer for the "horrible sin" of being born different. This is how typies see the world, but not this one. Fascinating. Hopeful.
-
[P] A data-point I found eye-opening was that American first peoples had a higher degree of autism diagnoses, with the CDC assumption even being that they're still underdiagnosed (especually children). This was fascinating to me, because insofar as social groups go, historically first peoples have been less violent. It's a bias, but I'd bet that acetylcholine sapience factored into a non-trivial reduction of violence.

[P] The neurodivergent social structures I've seen are more like cooperatives founded on a mutual appreciation of this morality. It's why I can look at groupings throughout history and measure with ease whether these are comprised of acetylcholine sapience or dopamine sapience. The easiest way to see this is in how outsiders are treated, since acetylcholine sapience doesn't require a Them in order to be defined.

[P] Conflict is inevitable because in order to coagulate a group-self and a hiverarchy (a pyramid-structured coalition of group-selves)? A Them is required, a not-Us, an anti-Us. This is very dualistic. Us has to be good, therefore Them must bebequally evil. This is the function of tribalism. In autism, it's different. I exist. You exist. Are you a moral entity who doesn't exploit with suffering for greed? Then we're cool.

[P] For an autist, though, being individual means being individual. It means being isplated and having no tribe, as most autistics will quickly find that every neurotypical group-self/tribe is too immoral for them. It's very important to focus on self-development and to build up this moral code. It's 2hat I refer to as acetylcholine sapience vs. dopamine sapience. The latter is rewarded by dissolving the self socially.

[P] When "indivieualism" is spoken of vis-a-vis neurotypicals, it'e talking about the performative "uniqueness" of the group-self, likely due to Dark Triad influencers. For example, a cult is very "individualist." The perspective of being collectivist is, then, that the group-self should stop being a special snowflake—that they ought to see themselves as identical to other group-selves for the greater good, which is noble.
#psychology #actuallyautistic #neurotypicals #collapse #worldwar3

-
[P] The focus on group-selves and hiverarchy over personal self-awareness and moral values is caused by interactions between dopamine and oxytocin (notably in the right amygdala). If a brain has a jacked up dopaminergic system, it prefers others, like acetylcholine. This draws one away from group-self drive t9ward a desire for self-development. It creates a new concept for individualism that's more true to form.

[P] I was just reading on r/Military about the current geopolitical climate. I was surprised by how many actual officers were talking about how it's all the human need for tribalism, that being evil is an OP strat in society as tribal groups obey their evil leaders. Yet for some reason this doesn't apply to anyone woth even an iota of autism, it often doesn't apply to ADHD either. I still have th3 same hypothesis.

[P] I have this funny memory of when I got my first PC. I learned things so fast, I built boot menus. In a month I knew more about PCs rhan any of the PC-owning typies I knew. How did I accomplish this? I trusted that engineers know a lot about their own aoftware, so I read the manual. I just read the manual. Why can an autist program a VCR? I read the manual. Why don't typies read manuals? "Can't trust 'em!"

[P] Scientists have been telling the typie group-selves how to build a better, more sustainable world for decades. "Yeah, okay, but who trusts IKEA manuals?" There's a reason why neurodivergents rock at IKEA builds, we RTFM. Read. The. Fucking. Manual. And scientists have been giving us manuals to build a better earth, but typies can't trust them because the dopamine pollen of tribalism is too sweet. Bee's gotta bee.

[P] If one disagrees with a group that a typie identifies as? "Oh, you're just stupid." or "Oh, you have an agenda." because no typie instinct runs stronger than tribalism. All a typie is is a bee obsessing over nectar in their hive, and the nectar is dopamine. It's an evolved trait—dopanine is the goal, tribalism is an unsurpassed source of dopamine. So, thinking one's geoup knows better than IKEA? Amazing dopamine!

[P] I haven't been talking a lot lately as tbere isn't much to say. I mean, the IKEA thing has remained with me. Every neurktypical alive thinks they know better than the engineers behind a project, that's a shared experience across all typie-kind. It's an incredibly arrogant anti-intellsctualism that defines typie-ism to its core. It's the same as ethno-nationalism, bioessentialism, and so on. A weird circular "logic."

[P] I mean, typies have ALWAYS had narcissism down pat, it's just that they express it as a group-self rather than an individual unit. I mean, invading Greenland because your group-self is "YO 'MURRIKA!" is pretty evidently narcissism beating morality. So neurotypicals have always rocked the narcissistic casbah, but it feels like typie group-selves are edging in on ASPD too! So I checked the research! And would you look at that...

[P] I'd had a chance to ruminate on why I'm so partial to Wings of Fire, this resulted in a revelation that left me.feeling particularly cretinous, downright dumb even. Oh, there are dragons, though plenty of works that I've enjoyed havenhad dragons. Tui is also a master of pacing, giving her stories room to breathe, pausing where ir's needed, and never once giving into the sin of dopamine engagement farming. Oh, but there's more.

[P] Another frustration with typie group-selves is bad science. I'm convinced that the assumption of dark matter is nonsense. I say assumption as it hasn't the wherewithal to be classified as hypothesis or theory, dark matter continues to be blatantly unscientific—because it isn't about science, but rather cults of bloody personality. There's so much dumb hubris and following along in this reoccuring mess.

[P] Goodbye Volcano High feels like one of those Borgy neurotypical group-self situations where some charizmatic influencer wirhin their hiverarchy told them to not like something, to a chorus of "I OBEY!" I've called this out before, but whem a massive group hate something but they can't articulate why? That's just "fitting in," it's thirsty dopamine-chasing. It amazes me that it culminated in Snoot Game.

[P] Also, this might be a weekly PSA now, but... I love the karmic worm! Oh, if he were a wyrm, he'd be my ideal. I dig him so much. I also adore the whole concept of Fionna and Cake season 2. A strangneness forced into a "normal" shape for a neurotypical world can never be truly happy, only by shrugging off the evils of the narcissistic typie group-self and refusing to change to fit them can one genuinely be happy.
