“Questions like “Is this normal?” or “Am I weird?” reveal how deeply the concept of being “normal” is embedded in the subconscious of the ordinary majority. They don’t mean “Is this ordinary?” or “Am I a product of a photocopy?” when they ask these things, of course. In fact, they are not even consciously trying to conform to norms, even if their words might suggest otherwise. It is simply that they have internalized the association of the word “normal” with the idea of “good.” GoodnessNormalGoodConformityNormAssimilationNormalityColonizationNormativityNormativeness Author:Sov8840

“...and they absorb the world shaped by these, "constructing" their thoughts, feelings, words, actions, identity, and beliefs accordingly, which means they will think in the same way, feel the same things, use the same words, do the same actions, have the same identity, and carry the same beliefs as the rest of society.” CommonInfluenceIdentityNormalOrdinaryUnconsciousAssimilationNormalityHerd MentalityNormative Author:Sov8840
