@LukeAlmighty @zemichi I don't think you quite grasp the WASP mindset. The mindset that leads to hipsterdom and things like normcore. You need to know what "counter-signalling" is. And I realize that the definition of the term "counter-signalling" has kind of lost it's meaning because retard pseudo-intellectuals on the right have come to use the term in place of "disparaging."
This is counter-signalling.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CountersignalingCounter-signalling is why you have broke hood niggers covered head-to-toe in brand name clothing but you still know they're poor. Counter-signalling is why when you see a very modestly dressed white person, you know that they're in all likelihood richer than their better dressed peers. Counter-signalling is why you know the professor who lets you call them by their first name is more competent than the pajeet who insists you call them "doctor."
Not getting a blue checkmark will be a form of counter-signalling. ESPECIALLY because to get a blue checkmark means paying into a right-wing, fascist, transphobic institution. The mindset among these people will be "I am important and you should just know without me paying 20bux" The really noteworthy people won't get checkmarks because they're quite secure in their reputation. The people on the social ladder below them will be inclined to for a while but then they'll see that it makes them look stupid.
