Hypernormalization - what is it?

A neighborhood that is unbearable to live in for the people that hate it.

The girl got out of the hypernormal neighborhood, and never came back or looked back. She found somewhere she loved and belonged when she finally realized she didn't own the town the way she thought she did for so long. She had a neighborhood of her own somewhere, even if she didn't hold it sacred.

What does "hypernormalization" mean?

An adjective describing something so very incredibly mundane it gets so hard to imagine. It's so much more ordinary than everything else in its normality. A paradox, honestly. If something is so normal it makes it stand out, then doesn't that make it unique in a way? The opposite is hyponormal, but surely they mean the same thing...

Person 1: Hey, she tries to fit in so much that she's hypernormal.
Person A: You're making up words by putting 'hyper' in front of them. Besides, maybe she's so much more normal that she's not like other girls ;)

Hypernormalization - meaning

The surreal state of late-stage communism in which semantic basis of consensus reality is absurdity.

Analogous to the hyperreal state of late-stage capitalism (postmodernism) in which subjective (individualistic) reality contra-referentializes into intersubjective (synthetic) reality.

Hypernormalization was an absurdist era of consensus reality that befell the Soviet Union in the early 90's.
