And I use "normal" in scare quotes, because, according to whom, exactly, capitalism? Society? Yourself? Some of the "weirdest" people I've met in my life where also some of the nicest and actually helped me out. People you'd peg as "normal"? Well I've had my fair share of shit with them. I'm not about to put up with some reddit lord trying to score points with cool kid podcasters by throwing people who feed the homeless under the bus, fuck you very much.

Marxism is from the continental rather than analytic tradition.

Also it's not worth getting into too extensively, but if you insist on doing slur-o-nometry, I think the main thing is just if the term is reactionary or not because we shouldn't be tailists. It's usually good to avoid offending people, but that's not the only factor.

But this is all missing one of the most core elements of the trueanon thing, which is basically just "mask any neurodivergence". Very frequently when someone says "be normal" they are just saying that.
