NOTE
The above are concepts classified according to subject and usage. It not only helps writers and thinkers to organize their ideas but leads them from those very ideas to the words that can best express them.
It was, in part, created to turn an idea into a specific word. By linking together the main entries that share similar concepts, the index makes possible creative semantic connections between words in our language, stimulating thought and broadening vocabulary.

I rewatched hbomberguys anti vaxx video recently and it’s insane how closely parent hysteria over autism mirrors hysteria over “rapid onset gender dysphoria.” in both contexts the emphasis is on the parents watching their children for signs of deviation from normative expectations - the assumption is that children have no interiority of their own, no ability to assert their own identities, and any evidence of their individual personhood (such as being neurodivergent or transgender) is only “real” once parents take notice. the concept of “rapid onset gender dysphoria” assumes this position - it’s only “rapid” to the parents, who either uncover evidence of their kid being trans without the child’s consent (such as scrolling through their phone or going through their things) or when their child discloses their identity to the parents (which generally means they’ve been thinking about it for a while and have been keeping it secret until they felt it appropriate to tell their parents). By the same token, “evidence of autism” is assumed to be sudden, a singular event where children progress from not autistic -> suddenly autistic, only becoming real once the parents finally notice. it’s like all children exist in a quantum state where their only “real” identities are the ones observed and reported by parents - the traits of children are only ever legitimate if a parent says so. In both cases there is an intense fixation on rooting out “aberrant” qualities, and in both cases these qualities are highly pathologised, conferring onto parents the authority of medical institutions to further restrict and control the behaviour of their children. Such conceptions of neurodivergence and gender are predicated on kids being the full property of their parents, who simply monitor and manage their various “conditions,” always vigilant for signs that their child is degenerate, mentally ill, or dysfunctional in some way
