The thing about having built up heavy sunk costs, large egos, and deep motivated reasoning to reinforce and entrench the cisheteronormative Christofascist techbroligarch patriarchy, its institutions, and ritual toxic traditionalism, is that when labeled as “#weird”, it’s unintuitive to pick up the term and wield it as a defense.

That is why calling the #AntiNormies creepy weirdos is so incredibly effective.

My $0.02.

YMMV

It was rightthere the whole time!

Personally, I find it very validating and a relief.

I’ve been using the #AntiNormie / #AntiNormies hashtags to describe the coalition of authoritarian Christofascist techbroligarchs for years, and it finally - finally! - became normal to just call them “weird.”

So here for it.

@thomasfuchs

For years, I used the #AntiNormie / #AntiNormies hashtags to obliquely refer to the absolute weirdos.

I am so here for it.

Democrats' new line of attack on Republicans? 'You’re being weird'

"I think it's really elegant in its simplicity," one Democratic strategist said.

@billyjoebowers
My own shorthand for #neoreactionaries is #AntiNormies, for exactly this reason.

THEY. ARE. WEIRDOS.

The #AntiNormies are some Lost Cause weirdos and Sherman’s #MarchToTheSea lives rent-free in their minds.

Attached: 1 image The Hill darling, Douglas MacKinnon, published a book entitled “The Secessionist States of America: The Blueprint for Creating a Traditional Values Country,” in which he envisions a new Southern region called Reagan, after our 40th president, which would consist of Florida, South Carolina and Georgia. Not Texas, however, because, well, frankly, there are too many Mexicans there. #DouglasMacKinnon #TheHill #Fascism #Racism #Disinformation #Florida #SouthCarolina #Georgia

The #AntiNormies suffering from brainworms will burn their own churches, shoot their own leaders, and maim their own children for the sake of power, status, and privilege.

Do not let these weirdos anywhere near public office.

Be decent, kind, and good #American citizens of the world, and #GOTV for 10 counties in 6 states with 6% of the swing #vote.

@MaryAliciaZiff I just don't know how to overcome that handicap. #antinormies is a term I've seen for those who create false memes to whip up outrage. If all some people see are lies on social media and lies on Fox News, they're never ever going to vote for Democrats
