Does “normie” crossover with “(I’m) just a regular guy/girl”? While they are obviously have highly different connotations, is the central meaning similar?
I tend to assume, owing to Subjectivism and Egocentric Bias, that at times people are more likely to identify as part of the majority (and therefore ‘normie’) than the minority unless they have some specific reason to do so. What further complicates this like a matryoshka doll is not only the differing sociological roles that a person can switch between dozens of times a day (re: the stereotypical Twitter bio “Father. Son. Actuary. Tigers supporter”) but within a minority one might be part of the majority of the minority, or the minority of the minority many times over. Like the classic Emo Phillips joke “Northern Conservative Baptist, or Northern Liberal Baptist” “He said “Northern Conservative Baptist”, I said “me too! Northern Conservative Fundamentalist Baptist...”″ itself a play on “No True-Scotsman”.
I wonder what fraction of people identify as “normies”
I wonder if most people have something niche they identify with and label people outside of that niche as “normies”
if so, then a term with a more objective perspective (and maybe better) would be non-<whatever your thing is>
like, athletic people could use “non-athletic” instead of “normies” for that class of people
