Or on the flip side, What commonplace ideas will be crazy in the future?
A common idea today that will become crazy is diversification. into non essential assets that is.

30 year mortgages
Heating food in random plastics and eating from them
Lol plant-based meat replacements that are meant to look like meat, seriously wtf?
Perhaps the entire schooling system? Even now, most people seem to believe it is broken or deeply flawed. Definitely one of those legacy systems in need of an update.
I also think that under a Bitcoin standard, debt will be far less common to the point of sounding crazy. Very difficult to pay off your dues in a deflationary environment, and there will be no printers for reckless borrowers.
Oh and people collecting shiny yellow rocks as a store of value. :^)
No money, everything you need can be made in replicator... :-) You work because you want to not because you have to...
I agree with prior assertions in reply to my comments that my aggressiveness is out of place, so I will merely pre-emptively mention that the kinder person who will surely come in to explain the severe error you are making is correct.
Buying everyday items with debt.
huge mega cities
Within 5 years, Americans will believe that COVID restrictions, especially lockdowns, were exclusively Democratic policies, despite the fact that 76% of Republican governors declared lockdowns. I know a Republican in Florida who believes that Florida never had a lockdown, despite the fact that Trump (a Republican) criticized De Santis (a Republican) for ending the lockdown in Florida. You can't end something that never started.
Americans aren’t that stupid, but I’m sure you wish we were.
Where do you get that idea? Is it because I don't praise America with my every breath?
I have seen first-hand that most Americans are proudly ignorant of the past, unless a specific historical episode somehow justifies the current propaganda that they absorb from mass media. The few Americans who want to understand history are ignored or called crazy by the rest. Americans deserve every tribulation they experience -- repeating the mistakes of the past is the only just consequence for their pride.
Dawg you just described most countries. Everyone internalizes positive message that aligns with their biases, and maligns those that don’t. Unless a human being can evolve past blindly following their biological programming, it’s human nature
People preferring to spend 99% of their time looking at stuff from a small digital screen and 1% admiring the world around (nature, delicios food, art, the sky, a concert, animals, other humans, architecture, and so on).
Wait what year is this?
Carnivory, among the globally wealthiest 10% or so.
common today, crazy in the future: the government has everyone's best interests at heart, would never lie to the people, and the growing centralisation of power and money into very few hands was for our best interests.
Crazy today, common in the future: Society doesn't need the state.
Common today, crazy in the future: Human beings can't cooperate without all-encompassing mass coercion.
I totally misread this question at first! I was thinking it asked, "What crazy idea today will be commonplace in the future?" rather than the other way around. I'll answer both.
Common today, crazy in future: using cash that's actually made of paper or metal
Crazy today, common in future: (1) never, ever, ever leaving one's home to work, shop, play, interact, work out, etc. but merely logging into the metaverse and (2) everything, everything will be NFT-ified.
Bitcoin as the world's reserve currency.
Don't get me started lol
Tokenized assets by the government, FedNow specs mention them.
