If someone calls a person 'normie' they are probably an idiot.

That word is used to express the feeling you get when some better socialized, but not particularly smart or competent or educated or understanding people disrespect your hobbies/expertise/opinions/feelings while you don't disrespect theirs.

I use it sometimes. More often in periods after once again forcing myself to believe that maybe I shouldn't look at people this way and maybe I'm wrong, and then getting wounded once again.

Just call em what they are. Ignorant.

[-] vacuumflower 10 points 1 year ago

Not quite the word. I'm often ignorant too. It's rather about ignorance coupled with arrogance and habit of underlining one's better socialization.

So calling someone a normie kinda implies that they are proud of being a normie, they just would use other words to say it.
