Alex Wolf 🐺🌍🏳️‍🌈<p>I have a work social media persona. My "worksona". It's who I represent as on LinkedIn and also on here.</p><p>I also have an authentic social media persona. It's another account on another server under an alias. An anonymous alias.</p><p>Why does this discrepancy exist? Because I talk about lived experiences, values, and positions on my second account that are stigmatized by society. Mental health. Neurodivergence. Gender. <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/FuckTheSystem" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FuckTheSystem</span></a>.</p><p>My "worksona" is not me. It's a construct I shaped to maximize my chances by allowing me to harness conditional privilege: mainly that I'm _read_ as a white assumed cisgender, neurotypical, heterosexual, able-bodied man. But it's a mask. It means I'm keenly aware of the discrepancy in privilege that is granted based on how one is perceived.</p><p>I've been slowly incorporating more authenticity into my "worksona" but the sad truth is that there's still a wide chasm between who I really am around the people I trust and who I am in a professional context. There is literally only a single person who knows me in real life and also knows the full me. Everyone else gets a filtered version. Why? Stigma. Stigma that's assigned to layers of my identity I have no control over.</p><p>This is what privilege is about. Chances are that if your "public persona" aligns closely with your authentic self that you benefit from a whole lot of privilege (or that you're a <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/neuroqueer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>neuroqueer</span></a> rebel; I see you and applaud you). And to the white men in my followers: this is what people talk about when they say you have privilege. The insidious truth is that it's _invisible_ to you because you probably don't know anything else. But there are many people around you who just _pretend_ to look and act like you.</p><p>I am one of the people who pretend.</p><p><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/privilege" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>privilege</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/patriarchy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>patriarchy</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/capitalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>capitalism</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/career" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>career</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/work" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>work</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/queer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>queer</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/neuroqueer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>neuroqueer</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/neurodivergent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>neurodivergent</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/trans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>trans</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/cis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cis</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/oppression" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>oppression</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/comingOut" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>comingOut</span></a></p>

Nox and the Pack :Fire_Enby:<p>If you assume that the NT mind has an easier time developing an auto pilot than the ND mind - auto pilot meaning "fast" (shortcut) thinking - then it's no surprise that societal biases are so hard to extinguish.</p><p>Our minds indisputably develop in a biased environment. Therefore the foundational model of reality that is being shaped for the NT auto pilot is biased as well. It's not unlike how biases get baked into AI models. Garbage in, garbage out.</p><p>The ND inability to hone an auto pilot of a similar complexity as the NT mind therefore becomes an advantage when it comes to notice biases as we are forced to rely on active processing of the information - in the absence of an auto pilot we have to think "slow".

olena<p>Today in Primark accidentally heard a piece of someone’s dialogue:<br>- Crees que es bisexual?<br>- Creo que es fluido de la vida!<br>and, well, that ‘fluido de la vida’ is probably the best <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/neuroqueer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>neuroqueer</span></a> definition I could think of. Like, fluid not just in sex/gender related stuff. Fluid in everything in life. Never belonging to one category. Displaying traits from many.</p>

olena<p>Years ago, I’ve seen a phrase saying that some people always remember that “I am not like others”, but always forget that “Others are not like me”. </p><p>For <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/neuroqueer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>neuroqueer</span></a> me, the first one is because, well, the society just doesn’t let me forget: I am always reminded that I am weird, wrong, not adequate, not appropriate etc<br>The second one, I suppose, is firstly because of exposure: <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/neurodivergency" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>neurodivergency</span></a> usually runs in the family - plus it’s more likely to be surrounded by somewhat relatable people, so <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/neurodivergent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>neurodivergent</span></a> traits are seen as more common, and, secondly, because of innate human trait to see oneself as a baseline, to measure the world in relation to ourselves. </p><p>For me, that second thing makes it sometimes hard to believe that the things represented in the culture as normal and common are actually real: <br>- Wow, guys, you have your real selves? How do you know it’s not just another mask?<br>- No, it can’t be that loud music in shopping malls is not overwhelming for someone! <br>- I’m sure, that spontaneous love-at-the-first-sight is totally made up by poets and writers!<br>- Why would they even care about that person’s gender, it doesn’t matter?</p><p>And, from time to time, it would create some common dismissive phrases to raise as a center of doubt:<br>- Isn’t everyone having the same problems? Do NT people actually exist and are not just the same NDs like me, just masking better, with NT stereotype being nothing more than just a fairy tale made by exploitive society everyone is chasing hopelessly? <br>- Isn’t everyone pan by nature and just putting themselves into certain frames according to societal expectations?<br>- Doesn’t everyone just decide first that they want to fall in love with this particular person - based on their merits or potential candidates availability, and work towards feeling something later, and all those crazy spontaneous love stories being just late justifications of bad choices?<br>- Doesn’t everyone sometimes have dreams about having a different kind of body?<br>… and so on</p><p>The worst thing is, that despite knowing how ridiculous such doubts are, despite knowing all of the reasoning and all, part of me will still often have this doubts - because it’s not about actual reason, it’s much more about that basic instinct of having yourself as the origin, keeping all the coordinates relative to yourself. </p><p>Do you guys sometimes have these doubts about ‘maybe I am not so different after all, and others are just masking better?’ Are you also sometimes frustrated ‘It can’t be that some people actually do that’? Which are the things that you stumble upon most? <br><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/actuallyautistic" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>actuallyautistic</span></a></span></p>
