beatrice_otter: Me in red--face not shown (Default)

Watching this episode, Maxwell Lord went from “douchey businessman” to CREEPY MCCREEPERSON.  Oh, wow, him alone with Bizarro, petting her and quoting poetry to her and manipulating her, shiver.  Then him talking about completely rewriting their genetics and personality as saving them … as an autistic, that hits HELLA close to home.  (When people talk about “curing” autism, that’s actually what they mean, re-writing our genetics and re-wiring our brains, whether or not we want to be “cured,” and then saying they’re helping us and we should be grateful.  I thank God that it isn’t actually possible yet.)

And then.  And then Alex said that they’re not people, they’re experiments, oh, shit, Alex, you did not say that.
