[P] There's something dark that lies in the neurotypical psyche that I really don't like. I'm disturbed by how... frankly omnipresent it is. It has much to do with essentialist xenophobia and goes something like this: If an exotically non-human—unrecognisable in any way as human—mother and child are depicted, both must suffer, they must be seoarated and tortured. This is enjoyed Universally by all neurotypicals.

[P] I understand a lot about neurotypicals, but this one frustrates me. Why is the attempt made to normalise tuis? And there is an attempt being made because—as I said—I've seen this countless times before. I've spoken with neurotypicals about this and the attitude is: "Why do you care? They're just monsters." Cool. Cool. It's not like humanity doesn't have a troubling history of rendering people persona non grata.
