THE DEVIANT BRAIN AS A LOCAL NORM

“Aren't you repulsed by clients with abnormalities? I would lose my mind listening to such filth.” — answering the question.

My clients' stories would leave you horrified and depressed, but I see any deviation as a consistent psychological pattern with its own distinct logic. Every mutation is a potential norm awaiting evolution's approval.

“How do I keep my distance from these deviants ?😅” — answering the question.

Within human society, the deviant brain is considered the norm. Humans are notoriously the most brutal animals on the planet (see details — Evolution Through Sadism). This is precisely why the phrase "there are no completely healthy people" is so popular.

The social environment — aggressive and highly competitive — is akin to a jar of pickles: a cucumber placed inside is inevitably brined. The human psyche, being flexible, is forced to "deviate" in one direction or another under external pressure, activating its defense mechanisms. Within such an ecosystem, the paradox is obvious: the more deviations a person has, the more "normal" and adapted to this environment they are.

Civilization is an artificially constructed zoo that locks up the most brutal primordial beast, which inevitably takes a toll on its psyche. Against the backdrop of a totally brined society, the psychopath (see details — From Basic Human to Psychopath: Model B) is terrifying precisely because of their immunity.

Absolute resistance to the brine of the social cage is the manifestation of a new anthropological species. This variation is closer to artificial intelligence than to an animal: we are looking at Homo sapiens having shed the tail of sentimentality and evolutionary bugs.
