I'm slummin it on YT comment sections

and NPC lmao

Is NPC considered a dead meme at this point?

I've seen a few lefty attempts at branding

Branding the NPC meme, that is

Not entirely ineffectively- although it's chiefly satirizing MAGApedes

I've seen its usage on twitter decline since the election I think

Agility in the meme war is important. The left parasitizes and makes zombie memes

Better to jump to another

"The NPC meme is dead"

long live the meme

I think it has a pretty long life honestly

The NPC can kind of become the Chad V Virgin meme.
"the Virgin thing I don't like" vs the "chad thing I like"

read this

it's actually pretty enlightening

It cuts to the bone, which is why it rose in popularity so quickly.

regression to the mean is real lol

I agree the meme still has potential, I just haven't seen it on twitter much lately

Memes move so quickly.

@Nemets That's interesting. Do you think us talking about race realism genuinely has enough of a political impact for them to have reason to be afraid? I've thought of race realism as something necessary, but not something that you would open up with.

/pol/ still has a role as a workshop for memes

Like, most people aren't gonna change their ideology because of PCA plots lol

It's still on the_donald and I expect there will be some IRL trolling of liberal rallies with NPC meme in the future.

But it's still necessary we have some understanding of race realism to counteract the leftist pseudoscience

If we want to undermine the Left, then we need to make a continuum of views.

people don't respond to logic

@Rabbidsith THANK YOU!

they respond to emotions and believe what they think is a continuation of their previously held beliefs

YES

@Papa Pizzagate np

i don't know what I did

but thanks

Feelings don't care about your facts, my dude

I have been saying that for months.

@Papa Pizzagate Well...yeah. That's how humans are wired.

@Wood-Ape - OK/MN /pol/ is still definitely the spawn point of great memes. The NPC meme originated there, I remember the thread (2nd thread, mods deleted the 1st)

And that's just the most recent

Humans think with a lizard brain in almost all cases except for a rare exceptional few people. @Papa Pizzagate

Most of us in here view the world logically and empirically as possible. It might seem obvious to you, but you'd be surprised how hard it is to empress that point onto pipo

4chan is largely non-white, but damn, if 8chan hasn't gone full divisive purity spiral, I don't know what else is
