Normies just means people who aren’t in the in group and to me means we are the weird ones, exclusive group or have uncommon interests or knowledge.
It is important to be self aware that in the context of the fediverse and meme culture things you are use to are weird, different, and sometimes confusing. Perfect example has been the beans and the 3 day poop thing. Normal people don’t get and will think it is weird if they know nothing about the trend. Another example is I am a rock climber if I reference a jug or a sloper it means nothing to normies or people unaware of the lingo. So a jug joke isn’t something other people get
I personally think that if you are the age of majority during a representatives serving of office then you should get a vote in that office. Senators serve for 6 years you can be nearly 23 before you get to vote for one 22 and 11months and 30 days. That is over 5 years where you got no say in your representative. 3 years for president and 1 for Congress ( in the usa).
