I've seen some people getting genuinely uncomfortable at the recent discourse. Just wanted to point out there's more than one kind of weird.

I think the point is that Republicans detest the idea of being weird no matter what, so they would rage at the suggestion of being a good weird anyway. To them "good weird" is an oxymoron, even though they are actually very weird and not in any kind of good way.

yeah that makes sense. i was envisioning them attempting to 'own' it by jumping into 'good weird' with both feet.

but as someone else pointed out also, thats prolly giving them too much sefl-aware credit

They've been bullying the good weirdos for decades, there's no backtracking now!
