It's not that both sides repeat the same phrases or buzzwords. It's that a large majority of the modern left hold views only because it has been "programmed" into them by the media.
No, it's not. It's the view that only the self can be known to exist, IE all our perceptions could be completely false and therefore all the people we see. It doesn't start from thinking some people are false, you've got the cause and effect backwards for solipsism.
How can he not see? That rather than proving something or advancing an agenda these people are making these shitpost accounts because they think it's funny.
It's just a shitty, poorly made, meme that's only popular because of it's blatant pandering. It's worse than those webcomics that try to make themselves into formats on purpose.
Other than a single article denouncing it, literally all booty blastedness I’ve seen has been booties getting blasted over other, hypothetical booties getting blasted over the npc meme. So soothe your booty and shut the fuck up already
It is people coming to the realization that they aren't special or distinctive in any way. Most of their lives and even how they think are influenced by everything else around them. It is like calling someone a "snowflake" but with the added bonus of saying you will never amount to anything.
Most of their lives and even how they think are influenced by everything else around them and they haven't had a single original thought in their life.
True, but isn't that how human intellect actually works?
the NPC meme preempts replying with simple name-calling or a canned response. given the current level of political discourse on twitter, this takes a lot of people out of their comfort zone
it's been compared to the "russian bot" insult, but it isn't quite the same. the russian bot/shill insult preempts any intellectual effort being put into a response (after all, it would just be further proof that they really are a foreign spy trying to desperately to pass)

Still waiting for Silicon Valley to ban the meme.

That's from September and doesn't say anything about this particular meme actually being banned.
1 Velxon 2018-10-14
It's about dehumanizing language which includes the NPC meme, there were articles written about it too
1 Protista_of_Peace 2018-10-14
Yes, I know why it's being bandied about. I just haven't seen an article or anything about all the N P C memes getting banned on twatter.

Thinking you're an idiot isn't being mad

That's not what solipsism is.
1 caliberoverreaching 2018-10-14
Yes it is, it's the belief that you're the only one with real thoughts.
1 leva549 2018-10-14
The NPC meme only supposes that there are a certain % of people without internal thoughts. Not that there are no other people that have them.
1 throwaway-familyhelp 2018-10-14
Most people have the entire meme wrong.

This is why when pressed for some sort of explanation for their views, most fall back on "it's too nuanced for me to even explain to you"
(aka, I have zero idea why I hold the views I do and can't explain it at all)

The amusing part of the NPC meme is that I have only ever seen people talk about it, but never the actual meme itself.

because it's just low effort enough to be obnoxious, and people even in this sub can't just ignore it and move on
