I thought anon was the normie? The average person doesnt upgrade their PC every two years. The average person buys a PC and replaced it when nothing works anymore. Anon is the normie, they are the enthusiasts. Anon is not hanging with a group of people with matching ideologies.
The point that the thread OP is trying to make that a “normie” is someone who is not considered as passionate about a subject as, say, an enthusiast. So naturally, they will not be as prone to spend money and replace their gear very often.
The word is incredibly vague and fails to reflect the diversity of viewpoints and opinions. Everyone has their own perception of what is most common, so the definition varies wildly.
yeah but i feel like that’s the perfect encapsulation of the meaning though, extrapolating it to anything else would ruin it’s meaning… Wait now this is just the opposite argument.

It’s similar to how car enthusiasts might give you shit for driving a ten year old Camry, whereas most people won’t care.
Yeah, most people. Aka the “normies”.
Normies still have hobbies

Let’s just drop the word “normie” altogether.

isnt that, the point?
It’s supposed to refer to “normal” people. an incredibly broad and vague selection of people, who are, rather indistinct.
Kind of, but in doing so it loses any significant meaning. Everyone interprets it as they see fit
