A neurodivergent alterhuman pride flag, for when you feel as if your alterhumanity is in some way affected or influenced by your neurodivergency!
(Original alterhuman symbol created by @kindness-flags; we edited the infinity symbol in to make an ND alterhuman symbol!)
This flag is open for all neurodivergent alterhumans, regardless of one’s belief system (psychological/spiritual/etc)! This is because the ways neurodivergency can affect alterhumanity are expansive and not limited to psychological alterhumans alone. (We’re spiritual and ND!)
What does alterhuman mean?:
(adjective) A personal identity which is beyond the scope of what is traditionally considered ‘being human’, including but not limited to: otherkinity, therianthropy, otherlinking, otherheartedness, etc. Can also include groups such as plural systems, furries, and daemians by self-identification.
(noun) a person with such an identity.
What does neurodivergent mean?:
(adjective) Differing in mental or neurological function from what is considered typical or normal (frequently used with reference to autistic spectrum disorders); not neurotypical.
I personally have no desire to label what does and doesn’t count as neurodivergent or alterhuman, (other than listing some of the most common associations), since both labels are largely based in self-identification! If you personally feel that you fit under these categories, you’re free to use these flags. 🙂
Color meanings:
We took the red, orange, and yellow from our alterhuman flag and set them in the center, because those colors are also often associated with autism advocacy! (Red for RedInstead, gold because the chemical symbol for gold is Au, and orange because it lies between the two!)
From there, the top colors are a gradient from the initial red to portray the spectrum of neurodivergency, and the bottom greens are a callback to the greens seen in other neurodivergent pride flags, as well as just being calming colors!
