"What is normal? That's what everyone else is and you're not." "Star Trek: Generations"
The problem with any well-intentioned reform movement (e.g., affirmative action and political correctness) is they're always going to marginalize somebody. But there's a difference between feeling prejudice against yourself and acting to others' expectations. To eliminate this, simply give more than you expect to get. When you do, you're changing yourself and give the other person potential to change as well because they become secure as they discover their lowest expectation for you is unjustified.

I think of it as the government likes people who think in the box and they don't care for those who think out of the box. It's kind of like a horse with blinders and if you take them off and realize whats really going on. I have first hand knowledge of this and was sickened to realize its all about politics and not about the people. I have learned to hold my cards close and that way I have them to play if I need to. There is always going to be prejudice out there because there is always going to be ignorance.

Speaking as someone who is "messed up"(I am using laymans terms), I cannot help but treat normal people with a certain distain.
They are taking our jobs and corrupting the minds of our children.
They breed like rabbits and I am afraid they have taken over.
Why can't they just back off and let the lunatics run their own asylum.

Yes. I am a single woman with no children who is self-employed. I should be rewarded, but instead, why do I get bent over by Uncle Sam for taxes, when my scumbag clients with eight kids get to hide their income and not pay a dime, and even get to mooch off the system.

This is too "deep" for me. There is no discrimination for being normal ...the country is being run by and idiot he doesn't know the difference.
