Re: How Much Normies...

The defining line, to me, is if a person identifies with fandom or not.

"Those shippers are weirdos, I enjoy this media for for the themes and characterization" = 'normie' even if they have a Twitter stan account.

"Who wants to cry about this scene and the SYMBOLISM with me?" = fandom person I might like even if they've never produced anything and havent read the source books. The also might not ship anything but they aren't there to tell me what I'm doing wrong, they're there to be a fan.

Also just a general inhibition and acknowledgement that fandom is fucking funny. Like how if you call gatorade by its printed flavor you're a cop and if you call Baby Yoda "Grogu" you're an employee of Disney if you have to tell me you're not "weird" you're not really in fandom. Its subjective but until fandom shenanigans get a tax write off we don't have to be objective, its just down to what we like.
