    I just don’t think people going out on the weekend are sitting around seething over “gamers” or vice versa. The normie thing is just another variation of the same theme: people like to think they are the in-group who “get it” and that most people around them are like them until someone catches their attention for not conforming to whatever standard they have internalized. They assume everyone else is an interloper based on how they envision other users, going off of a “vibe” if you will.

      Yeah, except I’ve observed that theme. So it does happen. I’m confused. If you claim to admit it happens, why then state you don’t believe it happens? I don’t even follow what you’re saying anymore.
