Thought I'd give this game a go. Obviously, I haven't got the knack of it yet.

I came to realise that every time we recognise something human in creatures, we are also recognising something creaturely in ourselves. That is central to the rejection of human supremacism as the pernicious doctrine it is.

I share your pain Steve. In one of the categories I did not realise that the term was used for an object. I thought it described more of a quantity/action. On looking it up the UK usage is very much as I thought. The USA usage is a description of an object. Obviously NS has a wider knowledge of arcane Americana than I have  ;)

Presumably the British usage came from the object.

Anyway, completely hopeless today

Relatively easy as a puzzle but the purple group is an obscure connection.
