I Can’t See That You’re Innocent When I Glance At Your Body Therefor You Must Not Be Trying As Hard To Be Innocent As I Am
[content/trigger warning: emotional abuse, suicide, sexual abuse, ableism, the fate-worse-than-death fantasy trope being used to explain a sociopolitical concept]
almost all of the difference between what is a pathological disorder and what is just having different biology from another human being is based on whether it makes it noticeably/significantly/urgently harder for u to function as part of society. even a genetic glitch that Causes You To Suffer Constantly 24/7 Forever will never end up being deemed as pathological by doctors if you hide it from other people really well, right? cuz how would they know how severely traumatizing it is for you internally, in your mind, if all they can do is measure it externally, in real life, with science?
this is why things like autism or tourette syndrome or chronic exhaustion or chronic pain, which are often called "invisible disabilities", garner a lot less empathy than a PHYSICAL/VISIBLE disability like a broken arm, or cerebral-palsy, simply because other people can immediately see the problem and immediately know not to ask you to take responsibility for something you obviously are incapable of doing.
in contrast, the majority of the therapy that is offered to the autistic for example, is mainly just teaching them to suppress their expressions of what theyre going thru, so that neurotypical people dont have to realize theyre asking way too much of the autistic community. the neurotypicals dont even realize how painful it is for us even just to eat a VARIETY of food rather than the same foods our entire life, or to wear more clothes than a t-shirt and maybe a skirt, or to sit nearby an electric light and have to listen to it buzz for hours at a frequency that neurotypicals can also hear, but tend to ignore due to the difference in how they PROCESS their sensory data.
some people even say that psychopathy, narcissistic personality disorder or even pedophilia are probably caused by mental or neurological problems just like depression or schizophrenia or hypervigilance are, which means that capacity for these people to cause harm is biologically reduced, regardless of how much they try not to cause harm; they literally have a harder time NOT making the world worse, compared to other people... it takes more effort from them to not horrifically-abuse others than it takes from the average person, entirely due to either genetics or the childhood abuse that shaped THEIR neurology, neither of which is really their fault at all.
so when we look thru decades of research and see that the best way to prevent them from causing harm is to make it EASIER for them to not cause harm (A.K.A. funding uniquely-tailored disability assistance programs for them to teach them how to lessen or redirect their inherent impulses to harm) and then change our mind and turn away in disgust at the prospect? not wanting to offer anything to the worst criminals of our society? thats not just denying the loathsome reality of the situation, but also contributing to why they still continue to CAUSE such terrible soul-crushing harm in the first place: because the able-bodied are not there to rescue them from their own morally-broken basal ganglias, like they wouldn’t hesitate to for someone whose fingers were replaced with dangerous knives ala edward scissorhands. we need to be able to visually see that the inherent harmfulness is external to you AT A GLANCE, or we will automatically assume you arent even trying to be a good person
those who see a narcissist finally admit they WERE faking their suicide attempts to avoid abandonment at literally any cost, due to the moral-compass-overpowering severity of their abandonment-issues, and cry out “OKAY COOL SO YOUVE REACHED A POINT WHERE YOU CAN START TO REDUCE HOW MUCH HARM YOU CAUSE. THAT OBLIGATES NO SYMPATHY FROM ME!!!!! YOU STILL MADE THAT PERSON INTO A CATATONIC HUSK. YOU ARE NO LESS WORTHY OF HELL THAN BEFORE” without any regard for how their (admittedly 100%-justified) insults affect the narcissists development towards normalcy, are the same as those who wish that more people were traumatized into catatonic self-torture in the future.
these people are like this not because they are fairytale villains but because their brain tells them it is good or even necessary to be this way. this can theoretically be altered just like any other biological phenomenon, if one knows how and has the technology, possibility & motivation to do it... but nobody would be interested in medically-healing a “bad person” into a “good person” even if we DID magically jump ahead in our scientific understanding of the human brain by 50 years overnight... because the “bad person’s” limbs and mouth and head and face have already done bad things, and we don’t care what systems of their brain had control over them. locked-in syndrome is bad enough, but being locked into a body that doesnt stop harming no matter how much u tell it to, only just slows down or suppresses the harm a little bit? thats beyond the comprehension of most people, despite it effectively already being the case for The mAJORITy of neurological disorders, whenever their symptoms are severe enough.

Inko as All For One's daughter headcanons (Toshinko Headcanons)
I've imagined a full Inko is All For One's daughter AU and Toshinori and Inko have an enemies to lovers dynamic, in which Inko is a morally grey vigilante. Here we go.
Inko goes by the villain name Taker and wears a mask and hood, with a voice mod. She poses as a guy to get people off her trail.
Nana is still dead and Toshinori is in America with David.
Toshinori and Inko first meet when they bump into each other in a crowded area and Inko practically trips over him, grabbing Toshi's necklace before Toshi apologizes to her and rushes off. But his necklace is left on the ground with Inko, she grabs it and tries to reach him. She ends up following him to a university where David and Toshi were going to meet, and she hands the necklace back to him. Toshi thanks her profusely as he tells her that the locket specifically had sentimental value to him. It was in memory of someone else. They part ways after a conversation.
She and Toshi are both in America when they first meet. And they go through several arcs of story, including but not limited to, an incident where Inko saves David, Inko (as Taker) and Toshi are both taking down the same evil organization and they dont realize it, Toshi tries to chase Taker. Toshi is perplexed by the villain who also has multiple quirks. He loathes Taker but Taker ends up doing something good and it confuses him. Up till now, Toshi though that Taker was just some link to All For One that he needed to shake off. But as events unfold, he sees more sides of Taker.
(Toshi and Inko bump into each other in civilian form a few times. It's cute. But they both know they live different lives to pursue anything)
Inko tries to hate All Might. She knows she's supposed to. They can never be allies. All Might would never trust her. She becomes Taker, and AFO allows this because going to America will make her stronger. It would also quell the villain competition that is trying to rise up in America. But Inko was always remiss about being in her father's shadow. Being daddy's little girl was a means to an end, her true purpose was to rule by his side. AFO is so desperately alone, he created a daughter for himself. But Inko grew dissatisfied with herself. She didnt like being a monster, not that she could ever stop. She knew the lives she had taken could never be replaced. She does what she can to mitigate it. Its inevitable for her to take, to get stronger with her quirks. Shes pragmatic. She wants her own path.
It leads into their fight, where after bringing down The Ten Commmandments, the organization they were both after. Toshi fights her and their clash is pretty even. Toshi is still only 45% with OFA training. Toshi manages to hit her head and break the mask. Where Toshi sees her face, and realizes it's the girl he met from before. That cute girl who gave him back the locket of the picture with Nana and him. It's the girl who laughed at his stupid joke, and thought he was genuinely funny. It's the girl he had pining over and tried to forget. And Inko realizes the guy she liked had been the enemy that was hunting her down.
They yell. Accusations fly. They don't trust each other.
It isnt pleasant the next they find each other, as Taker and All Might are both looking into finding the rest of remnants of the Commandments while Inko is scouting for more quirks he could use.
They hate each other. They find each other repulsive. But the good moments always come up. All Might was kind. He was a hero who inspired hope. Taker saved people. Her targets were usually always criminals. Inko saved David. They fought reluctantly, side by side. They know each other, but they're destined to clash. He's One For All's eighth wielder. She's All For One's successor. They simply arent meant to be, even if they have feelings for each other. That relationship is impossible. Besides, theres the overwhelming problem about All For One and that he will literally kill both of them if they tried going against him now.
David can tell. Toshi is conflicted about Taker. About Inko. They learned her identity when she told them. Toshi asks if she even cares. That she chooses to be a monster because being that becomes easier than actually facing her father. He calls her a coward. She agrees. You dont live with All For One and have wants. You survive. That's all you can do against him. Inko tells him that Toshinori should know that better than anyone. Nana Shimura did die against him. Toshi doesnt say anything.
They eventually give into pining throughout the years, because David forces them to talk it out, and they finally come together.
After All Might masters using One For All at 100%, he and Inko go back to face All For One.
During All Might and Taker vs. All For One, a conversation between Inko and her dad:
AFO: My dear daughter, I indulged your rebellious phase, but was it necessary for you to pursue a dalliance with my sworn enemy?
Inko: You should give me some credit, father. Most girls go for the bad guys. I went for a good guy.
AFO: You went for a boy you knew I would disapprove of. It cancels out.
They beat AFO together by tag teaming him. Taker steals All For One's quirks and then she and All Might killed All For One together.
Later in life, Toshnori and Inko have Izuku. (Toshinori and Inko are both Izuku's biological parents.)
(Please be nice)
