> normies who follow celebrities are equally as "disturbed"
Really a false equivalent. These girls are not celebrities. Probably the biggest point to make here. Some of these girls never even posted themselves onto image boards and didn't want followings. Some of them have spent years trying to get us to stop caring about them. Meanwhile, celebrities profit off tabloid gossip, have entire security teams protecting them and their homes, and enjoy being in the public eye. 

Even so, yeah normies like gossip, and so do we, but normies who gossip about celebs and follow them on insta don't go to the lengths that most posters here do with posting every single day about specific celebs who they think of every single day, and their admiration for celebrities doesn't involve intentional invasions of privacy and compulsive hoarding of pics/vids. 

If you want to keep the comparison to celebrity fanom, a more accurate specifric comparison would be https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ricardo_L%C3%B3pez_(stalker)
> He had poor self-esteem, was socially reclusive, and he eventually developed an obsession with Björk in 1993, hoping to be engaged with her; he was particularly angry over her brief relationship with the English musician Goldie. 
> He began gathering information about her life, followed her career, and wrote her numerous fan letters.[3] Initially, López cited her as his muse and said that his infatuation gave him a "euphoric feeling".[2] As time passed, his fixation became all-consuming and he grew more disconnected from reality.[2] In his diary, López wrote of longing to be accepted by Björk and to be a person who had "an effect on her life".[3] He fantasized about inventing a time machine to travel to the 1970s and befriending her as a child.[3] His fantasies about Björk were not sexual; in his diary, he wrote, "I couldn't have sex with Björk because I love her."
> López's diary grew to 803 pages, with passages about his thoughts on Björk and his feelings of inadequacy due to being overweight, his disgust and embarrassment about his gynecomastia, and his inability to get a girlfriend.
