I have encountered this phenomenon, especially in Europeans! You make a comment or ask a question and if the response has not been implanted into them, they seem to go blank and 'system error '.
I have even wondered if they forgot the question.
I believe that in an animalistic behavioral reaction, they feel they're walking into some sort of trap and will avoid it at all costs.
Yes, good point. I will have to reflect on this.
Does this mean that non-normies have a less developed instinctive brain? For survival?
I believe we all start with more or less the same instinctive brain. Then there are some who develop higher reasoning capacity that can overrule the instincts. Then there are some of those who develop an innate moral capacity which can overrule both reasoning and instinct. Each of these levels assumes the capacity is allowed to develop properly, because there's no shortage of ways to fuck up a human being.
Instinct is certainly about survival and reproduction, but when we get to the highest level we find phenomena like altruism. Evolutionist try to explain it away as having something to do with survival of the group or the genome or some such thing. And yes, all individual ants will sacrifice themselves to save the colony, but when we get to humans that's quite rare. It should be the opposite, right?
I believe that, yes, normies have always been like this. There is quite a body of evidence to support this, but virtually all of it is either missed, ignored, or misinterpreted by the mainstream (some of that on purpose, I'm sure).
If you're a fan of the Bible, I just happened to stumble across quite an old example, again from a passage universally misinterpreted in conventional exegesis:
5 They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out of course.
I guess we're supposed to think that God just likes to stand around bad-mouthing humans, but that makes no sense to me. Rather, I interpret this to mean that (the vast majority of) humans have neither the higher reasoning nor the innate moral sense to live moral lives in harmony with others. Just before, Yahweh says that they must be treated justly, defended and protected, and now gives the reason that it's because they're in no shape to do it themselves.
I don't know a single person IRL that isn't a normie. (I think I need to get out more.) What I always try to keep in mind is that they're exactly the same people they always were. It's me who has changed, so I've got to do my best to evolve and adapt to that situation. It wouldn't be fair to expect anything of them as they're not "doing it on purpose", and in any case trying to get them to wake up" has proven to be extremely unproductive.
It's turned out to be a blessing of sorts that I've always been a loner, introverted, self-reliant, but I've read so very many stories of people who have suddenly realized that their child or spouse or parent or lover is a normie, or--far worse--that that other person has realized that they were an unhinged conspiracy theorist or MAGA domestic terrorist or science denier or whatever else. These are incredibly heart-breaking tales, and I fear it would have been enough to break me in some way had I been in that situation.
All that being said, it shames me to admit it but yes, I would be disappointed if I had a child who was a normie. I would never under any circumstances bring it up with them, though. I'd let them think I was the kooky, off-beat parent who had a lot of zany ideas and maybe, just maybe, one day they'd think some of the ideas weren't so kooky.

Interesting, thank you kindly for your thoughtful comment. Lots to reflect on.
What would you do if you had a kid that turned out to be a normie? Would you be disappointed?
