How does saying that such hostile treatment is abnormal "erase" anyone's lived experiences?

If you tell someone who lived only eating one meal a day during elementary school that they did not have a normal childhood, you are directly commenting ON their "lived experience", not erasing it.

You seem to be conflating "that's not normal" with "that never happens", which is not reasonable.

because the lived experience in a lot of the country is that it's normal to be a religious extremist, that is the correct word. this is not a difficult concept, there is no nuance to get lost in, and it's weird that you're getting your panties in such a bunch over it.
