When you assume the goodness in one group is an exception but believe the goodness in your group is the norm, you're probably being prejudiced.

It is critical to note that our biases against the other are empowered less by our assumptions of their otherness and more by our assumptions about our own normality.

When you're accustomed to being considered 'normal', difference feels like a perversion.

Deviant' is the weapon of the normative to discredit and demonize the Other.

One of the deadliest tools of powerful systems is narrow definitions of what is "normal" and the reduction of difference to deviance.
