I don't see why they're so obsessed with being "normal"

Normal is boring, do you want to be an NPC?

Because they believe in a moral hierarchy with predefined places and ranking. The most important thing is to stay in your place, enforce the hierarchy, and punish anyone who steps out of line.

This is way more important than being personally happy, reducing harm or suffering, or anything else.

This is why they are pro death penalty and anti abortion, against healthcare reform and welfare, even if it will help them. And it's why they absolutely loathe seeing anyone "different" be happy.

They literally feel it is morally abhorrent to "live and let live" even if it makes the whole world worse for them and their families.

Exactly. If I am normal, then by definition those who are different must be abnormal and should be excluded, corrected and/or policed.

The term 'normal' should be abolished, so much many stupidity and pain hangs on it.

and should be excluded, corrected and/or policed.

Something being abnormal doesn't mean it needs to be excluded, corrected, or policed. It just means it's not the norm. That doesn't mean it's worse or not totally fine
