I am elevating this from megathread post to real post
I regret looking at X almost every time
This weird discourse has done actual psychic damage I think
Can someone make this make sense to me? Not uncritically adopting the weaponization of language traditionally, normally even, used to attack queer and neurodiverse people against less-lib American reactionaries by Democrats makes you a fed? It’s not a hill I would die but yeah
We are truly reaching levels of normality never seen before, regardless of how not weird and normal it is in many sections of society to be a turbo-reactionary
Have we entered a period where internet leftists and K-hivestandard internet left-libs become almost indistinguishable? I feel like I’m stuck in the event horizon of a terminally online singularity, spiraling toward a center of infinite onlineness
The most online people I have ever seen are telling other online people to log the fuck off, the 🥥🌴 usernames are joining with the 🍉🇵🇸 usernames in fed-jacketing people, the Democrat campaign is reposting dril tweets
We are cooked, the 
internet singularity consumes us all

So this is an attempt to take back normal for ourselves and relegate fascists into the role of counterculture?
Counterculture movements are commonly legitimized by way of being seen as counter to culture and open to discussion or investigation by the prevailing culture (for examples hippies, green movements, anti imperialist actions etc), labeling something or a group as “weird” more or less relegates them into the same lane as cults, extremely religious/zealous individuals and people in town that parents wouldn’t want their kids around. Weird as a term when applied is used to remove the chance for debate or open exchange and is why it is used by fascists to shut down other groups, i.e. “don’t talk to those weirdos they want to turn you into x”.
Punks and hippies were definitely considered weird.
I’d say odd but not weird given they were absorbed into the culture (music, grung, punk aesthetics), weird is more Scientology and how they have to interact with people without saying who exactly they are until they finally have them in the organization given how much of a joke they are.
