You're really trying to normalize it hard... But the reality is it's maybe true in some specific niche communities and bubbles. any given time in history different weird things were normal in small communities and bubbles. and time absolutely did not make those things "normal"

That's an ... interesting ... interpretation.
All I'm saying, is that "it is what it is."
Regardless of what we think of it, it's coming. It's likely that no one actually knows what things will look like; just a few years down the road.
The only surety that we have, is that it's coming; whether or not we believe in it.
Acceptance is the last -but most important- stage.
