Kotaku got triggered and release an article titled How The NPC Meme Tries To Dehumanize SJWs'

Its one thing to claim that a persons strongly-held views are informed by nothing at all, but entirely another to imply that theyre completely on auto-pilot. That is dehumanization, a way of reconceiving your enemies as objects, pawns, strawmen, tools. At best, dismissing large swaths of people you disagree with this way betrays a lack of empathy for people whose experiences differ from yours, and an unwillingness to consider that if a vast number of people happen to agree over something, it may be good to examine why; at best, it is a great utility for spreading bogus conspiracy theories.
