Nothing is broken that's normal.
I've got the car up on stands, in neutral, and the rear wheels are slowly turning. I can stop them with my hands... wtf? How is that possible and what is broken to allow that to happen?

Really? How does it turn when in neutral?

With the engine running and the clutch engaged the primary shaft in the transmission is spinning which will spin the fluid. The spinning oil can spin the secondary shaft via the oil. That is why you can stop it with your hand. Sort of an oily waterwheel.
Or like a horribly inefficient torque convertor. I wonder why i have never seen it happen before. I am trying to think what is different, maybe the cold?

Yeah probably the cold. Tranny fluid is already pretty thick at room temperature, and when it's cold, my shifts are noticeably more difficult until the car warms up.
