HTML mistakes that I can't edit, sigh. Here's what this should say:
"For the first time in history, humans had a world-altering fact forced on them; sentences do not imply sentience."--James Boyle
I'm thinking about Chuck Tingle being accused of being an AI. And Mel Baggs and a lot of other people writing about what it takes for them to make sentences. And generally what it means when people don't believe you're a person.
I think the connection to disability and neurodivergence is already pretty heavily implied, but it can't hurt to make it explicit.
