Boy Boy has a video where they sneak into a military weapons convention.

One guy was selling crowd control armor and advertised the dissociation from your actions that armor like that creates, divorcing you from guilt.

If I'm not mistaken, all those other terms were imposed on people not really self described.

I think neurodivergent will survive because people can proud to be neurodivergent. It's closer to an identity than a prescriptive label.

I for one am proud to be neurodivergent.

I'd say this is the case for mammals and birds, but I think other branches of the tree of life are more hit or miss since they're less social animals.

I'd be curious to see a study of empathy on octopi, the smartest non-social animal.

Sure would be a shame if people mass produced AI imagery to give false leads...

America still has slaves, the constitution makes an exception for prisoners, which is just Roman style slavery again.

That's the thing, you shouldn't be identifying as a person attracted to minors. You don't say "I'm a Person of Depression" you say "I have depression".

If you're serious about outlining the minor attraction as a problem you have to struggle with, don't declare it like an identity to be proud of.

And if you don't see it as a problem, you're just enabling pedophilia. The people inflicted with it need to admit they have an illness to get treated.

The issue is using the same kind of language as like "Person of Color", as if pedophilia is an identity rather than an illness.

If we truly want a neutral clinical name, we'd say something like "Minor Attraction Disorder". It's something that's only permissible if you are actively seeking help and self control like any other disorder that's prone to harm.

If anything modern day santa is more of an invention of Coca-Cola than Christianity or Paganism.
