Neuromayo

Neuromayo is the opposite of neurospicy. As mayonnaise is the opposite of spicy.

Neurospicies have trouble living in a world of neuromayos rules.

NEUROBIAS

Official Definition:
Neurobias is the automatic and unconscious cognitive-emotional bias that the brain activates from its deep neuronal programming (implicit and explicit memory, traumas, repeated experiences, neurodivergent patterns, and negative priming).
This filter determines our perceptions and decisions without us being aware of it, becoming the invisible engine of our identity and daily behavior.
Through metacognition, it can be detected, consciously choosing the most appropriate lens and transforming it into a controlled tool that frees us from autopilot and brings us closer to the most precise truth.

“Neurobias is what I feel when my mind decides for me before I can choose, automatically activating the filter of my deep neuronal patterns until I use metacognition to change the lens.”

Neuromenace

A neurodivergent being whose expanded perception, pattern recognition, and refusal to comply with distorted systems makes them appear threatening to structures built on illusion.

A neuromenace is someone who has moved through layers of confusion, conditioning, and sensory distortion to reach clarity, coherence, adn truth perception. Because they naturally expose contradictions, manipulations, and energetic misalignments, institutions or people invested in maintaining those distortions may lable them disruptive, difficult, or dangerous.

Rather than being destructive, a neuromenace functions as a living diagnostic system for truth. Their nervous sytem becomes a tuning fork for reality. Clarity is not aggression. Distortion simply cannot survive it.

Being a neuromenace in late stage capitalism has some real AF implications! To stand 10 toes down as a neuromenace in the world requires great courage. Finding community with a unique Signal of Neuromenaces (a grouping with similarities) can be nourishing and supportive for continued existence.

Neuro-Orthodoxy

The established, institutionalized set of beliefs about the brain that dominate neuroscience and public discourse—the often-unexamined assumptions that brains explain everything about mind, that brain imaging reveals thought, that neural correlates are causes, that brain differences explain social phenomena, that neuroscience is the ultimate authority on human nature. Neuro-orthodoxy includes commitments: that complex human experiences reduce to brain activity, that fMRI shows what people think and feel, that brain differences between groups explain social inequalities, that neuroscience will eventually answer all questions about mind, that neuro-talk is inherently more scientific than psychological or social explanation. Like all orthodoxies, it provides a framework for understanding, but it functions as ideology—making brain reductionism seem like the only rigorous approach, obscuring the limits of neuroimaging and neuro-explanation, and delegitimizing other ways of understanding human experience. Neuro-orthodoxy determines what research is funded, what explanations are taken seriously, and who counts as "scientifically literate" versus "naive" about the brain.

Example: "He explained every human phenomenon in terms of brain activity—love, politics, art, meaning—as if neural correlates were explanations. Neuro-orthodoxy had made reductionism feel like depth."

Neuroeugenics

A speculative and highly controversial concept referring to the application of eugenic principles to neuroscience—the idea of selecting, engineering, or enhancing neural traits to produce "desirable" cognitive, emotional, or behavioral characteristics. Neuroeugenics encompasses hypothetical technologies ranging from genetic selection for intelligence to neural engineering for emotional regulation to cognitive enhancement for social conformity. The term carries the historical weight of eugenics movements that justified forced sterilization, racial hierarchy, and genocide under the banner of "improving the human stock." Critics argue that neuroeugenics repeats the same dangerous logic: identifying certain neural traits as "superior," treating human variation as pathology, and justifying intervention on populations deemed "deficient." The concept serves as a warning about where cognitive enhancement technologies might lead when combined with ableism, racism, and the drive for social control.

Example: "The proposal to screen embryos for 'cognitive potential' was called neuroeugenics by critics—not because it was literally eugenics, but because it repeated the logic: some brains are better, and we should eliminate the others."

neurodifficult

Those who perceive themselves to be “neurotypical,” but whose way of communicating with others is purposely obtuse, or void of clarity or reason or consistency from the perspective of those perceived to be “neurodivergent.”

My brother is frustrated with me because he asked me to do the opposite of what he actually wanted; he’s being such a neurodifficult.

Neuroarchy

A societal system where neurotypical individuals hold dominant power and enforce neuronormativity, shaping workplaces, schools, and social expectations in ways that prioritize neurotypical ways of thinking while making life more difficult for autistic people. The neuroarchy is often maintained without conscious intent, as neurotypicals assume their way of thinking and behaving is the default. This leads to environments where autistic people are pressured to mask, suppress their natural traits, and conform to neurotypical expectations—sometimes through Neuroconversion Therapy, a practice that attempts to "train" autistic people to behave more neurotypically.

The neuroarchy makes life harder for autistic people, and those who struggle to conform are often pushed toward neuroconversion therapy.
