[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] 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.
