Some of the main ones being: stigmatization of «non-normative» behaviors, reactions and perceptions; limited socialization of particular neuro types; lack of opportunities for affected individuals to partake fully in development and realization of their potential.

Stop commodifying yourself!
In this video, I briefly summarise three ways in which zen buddhism and leftist theory have given me perspective on commodification of myself and the modern society.
Watch this if you feel useless
Dear comrades, If you feel a bit out of it today, here is a little video I made some time ago. Folks've been telling me it makes them feel better.
