This is apparently a copypasta of unclear origin, mostly going under the name "I Used to Be A Normal Person." Can't tell who the original author was, but I can tell there's a lot of variations with fewer "I need to connect the dots" moments, just with the same lack of self-awareness about how outmoded their old ideas are. Fucking Hell, I can't believe I spent an hour dissecting a copypasta like it was someone's actual heartfelt (if absurdly myopic) thoughts.

It's not the original, of course, since I've found quite a few dating back from early June, and at least one of these early posts claimed that it was going around four years ago, though I can't find any evidence of that. Although that one does seem close to what he posted with a few notable additions and omissions:
- I used to think I was pretty much just a regular person, but I was born white into a two-parent household. And even though I was raised by a single mom, wore a LOT of hand-me-downs, and had to walk a mile to the bus stop for school, my skin tone is what mattered, which now labels me as "Privileged", racist and responsible for slavery.
- I think males and females should go to the restroom based on the birth sex, so I am labeled a sexist. (Removed entirely)
- I vote for the Republican party because it best represents my conservative views, which labels me as a racist. (also removed entirely)
- My opinion differs from those in the media and those on the far left, so now I am hated and deserve to have my belongings stolen for being labeled racist. (once again removed entirely)
- I believe the Lord did not give me a heart to judge others.
- I kneel only for The Cross, which makes me racist.
