outcaste, n.All

Outcaste (n.) had ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠no legal identity in ancient India — a human animal rather than a human person.

Outcaste (n.) below ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠— criminal or lunatic — mirrors the outcaste above: one flees the double bind as insoluble, the other laughs at it as nonsense, and society treats both alike.
