| Topic | "NPC" is the dumbest redhat meme yet |
| Zero_Destroyer 10/17/18 11:38:14 PM #292: | Cuck and Soyboy worked better as pure insults. The problem with "NPC" is that there's actual irony to it because you are criticizing scripted behavior yet you are propagating a meme. Ergo, you see a left-winger you feel is ridiculous, and you follow the script by memeing them with "NPC". You're conditioned to use the term. I don't care about the dehumanizing element, since that's obviously part of what an insult is designed to be, but the usage of the term here is hypocritical and ironic. It doesn't work. Cuck was the best one because it was a pure insult that didn't have any real logistical problems in the implications. Soyboy had issues since one of the main people pedaling the meme (PJW) sold soy-based products, but it still worked on some level as an insult intended to be emasculating. I'm hoping the next one to float around will be better tbh --- Enjoy movies and television? Check out my blog!
