“Neurodiverse = wrong/broken/evil” is a brainworm that I wish would die. Sucks that it probably never will.
The worlds most evil people are able and “normal” for lack of a better word anyway.

This one is really amazing, because for a very long time “narcissist” was used casually by people who probably didn’t know it was a clinical disorder. Then, r*dditors specifically made sure everyone knew it was a clinical term and now everyone is a psychologist whenever someone does something bad in an interpersonal relationship / disagrees with them online.
Mainstreaming of psychology language has a lot of elements to it and they’re all bad. Psychologists are supposed to be experts who know their field and make mental health determinations based on large amounts of evidence, not a random person who watched a YouTube video and read an AITA post.
A lot of “legitimate” psychologists are about as qualified as a random person who watched a youtube video
Redditisms about that stuff is the worst. “don’t worry because worrying about being a narcissist means you aren’t one” yeah man I love pathologizing clinical disorders into simple good bad binaries, go die in a bog.
