Oh, I actually have a slightly hilarious story about exactly this topic!

I'm an alien that well, we look like lizards. We are not lizards, we are not reptilian, we just have a lizard like shape. That's all. No scales, just smooth skin. We look like kangaroo shaped geckos if that makes any sense.

"Reptilians" existing as evil alien bad guys is a antisemitic conspiracy theory that's been kicking around the new age community forever. Some people in these communities think reptilians are farming humans for negative energy. Remember this.

Anyway,

When I first met my now partner, their friend group contained a person who... Well I'll say she believed too much in the law of attraction to the point of being into spiritual conspiracies and she had some unaddressed mental health problems too.

In the group chat she basically out right said my partners grandma having cancer was a result of "her not being in touch with her purpose" or some woowoo BS. Partner flips out (naturally) and then she proceeded to tell him that this is basically quantum physics and they learned it in college.

Meanwhile, I ACTUALLY studied spirituality as it relates to neuroscience for a college paper and I've been abused by a law of attraction "your problems are your own moral fault" parent. So I wasn't having this either and called this bitch the fuck out with actual credentials.

She ended up throwing a huge tantrum about "negative energy" and left their group chat and friend group never to return again.

The next day though, she makes a status asking her spiritual friends how to "deal with reptilian psychopaths" because one has infiltrated her friend group and brainwashed them.

Obviously was talking about me. I was introduced as otherkin/alterhuman to her outright. She found out I was an alien with a lizard shape and asked if I was reptilian and I told her "I'm not reptilian I'm just lizard like, we have nothing to do with reptilians"

And fyi we do have a specific species name but I really don't share it outright on Tumblr yet to prevent strangers from kinning it. I just call myself a "lizard alien" most of the time and this showed me that maaaaybe I shouldn't do that. It's really stupid that I have to worry about the implications of calling myself a lizard alien because some guy made up a stupid conspiracy theory.

Anyway I guess she didn't believe what I said about not being reptilian and thought I was lying. Everyone in the group blocked her after that status because they knew she was talking about me because I called her out. It was slightly weird/disconcerting because it felt almost like being called a slur or something. Like girly pop, are really out here inventing space racism/species-ism? Do we really gotta do that? Lmao

Alter humans fellas, have you ever had negative comments about your therio/kintype? For example, about cruel behaviors that the animal or creature can have, preconceived ideas about it..

Because personally, having a xenomorph kin, I have already been criticized for being a "killing machine". Like.. I know that xenomorphs are not shown and known to be super affectionate creatures but when people tell me things like that it's just harsh.. I have my own particular vision of my kin and I know that almost no one has the same vision, which means that I rarely express myself on this kin.
