The War on Normies (with Peachy Keenan)

[@JeremiahDaws]

Great episode!

[@dleegrooms]

Some of this stuff, even when I agree, makes me feel like an outsider to both the culture *and* the resistance. I guess I’m a “normie”? It’s not a rubric I find endearing. The parallels between “getting woke” and “waking up to what time it is” seem more and more direct to me, and I resist it a bit. Maybe it has to be that way, but…I don’t want living faithfully to just be another flavor of the same stuff. 🤷🏻‍♂

How obtuse can you possibly be? We're fighting against people who think it's awesome to shoot Lupron into perfectly healthy kids. Pick a side.

[@dleegrooms]

That was so helpful, zeenuf00. I wasn't sure if there was room for people like me at the table-whether we had to agree on principles, or if it was really about something else-but your comment cleared that right up. Thanks.

@GreatAwokening I meant to ask if that was a "There Are Four Lights" shirt when I commented last week, and I see now that it probably is! Where can I get one?

Peachy Keenan coined the term "HUSBOSEXUAL" for conservative women/wives. What term do husbands use? WIFEBOSEXUAL? Any suggestions other than this?

I loved the episode and agreed with so much of what she said. I just wanted to ask about a certain topic that she brought up. Peachy talked about how she doesn't like how some boys are being allowed to wear dresses or nail polish and she seemed to lump that in with girls getting their breasts cut off. And I think that Catholics and Christians can tend to blow gender nonconformity out of proportion. I think that's largely due to the trans issue. So it's understandable why they do that. 20 years ago before all this madness started, a boy in a dress wouldn't have been seen as that problematic. But now it is because it's seen as a sign that he's going to end up going down the trans pipeline. So while I do think it's imperative for parents to teach their kids that their gender is unchangeable and that the trans ideology is very dangerous, I also think we don't need to blow a little bit of gender nonconformity out of proportion. I don't think boys wearing tutus or dresses should be seen as alarming as taking hormones and getting surgeries. I think girls who or are tomboys and like to play with toy soldiers and boys who are feminine and like to play with Barbies can be acceptable. These things aren't akin to body modifications. It did kind of bother me how she lumped those things together. But I thought Peachy was very wonderful overall. I think she's a fantastic voice for normies and especially for normie moms. That's all I wanted to say so, thank you for reading my long comment . God bless!

First of all, there are no such things as normies. It is a term for people who focus on narrow differences over overwhelming similarities. Typically neurotic and conceited, they are convinced they are rational and logical without understanding what those terms even mean.
