Kanye West has been kicked off Twitter again for expressing increasingly anti-Jewish, pro-Nazi sentiments. Before that, he stormed off the set of Tim Pool’s podcast, and also answered a question from Alex Jones on his show in a pretty crazy way.
This has me thinking. What do we mean by comparing opinions, beliefs, arguments, behavior, and lifestyles to "normal"? What do we mean by that term?
At a bare minimum, we have to admit that the utility is limited, or changing, in relation to how much is it really worth to say that this or that is or is not normal, when more and more people are unhealthy, or believing things that are not true, or doing things that are not good.
Normalcy, then, may have some value in a prudential sense. That is, there is a practical benefit to noting what is common, regular, or popular. And yet we must aim higher than just doing what everyone else is doing, or saying what everyone else is saying.
As G.K. Chesterton once put it in 'The Everlasting Man,' “A dead thing can go with the stream, but only a living thing can go against it.”
