You’d better believe marketing execs and specialists in branding will divide and conquer market segments of apathetic typical people.

Addicts in recover programs can call the general population of non-addicts ‘normies’; people that have been marginalized for neurodivergent thinking often call the mainstream population of neurotypicals ‘normies’ etc.

Gatekeeping by commonly accepted language across diverse circles only serves for your own purity testing instead of focusing on the core issue of how to sell people on exercising their own basic self-interest.

Sounds like something normies would say. 🤣

Hard disagree.

You’re basically studying viral pathology and immunology at that point. Remember how restaurant little can be for making and for vaccinations in American culture?

On top of it taking the slightest effort … We basically have to settle the solutions and then invite or incentivize them into it, which is hard when you’re against disinformation networks with better fundling.

Not to say it’s hopeless. Just that the incentives in a highly individualized society captured under surveillance capitalism are misaligned.
