This thread will ultimately be used to identify triggers to mass redpill normie PCs via memetic warfar on NPCs.
Our first task is to define a diagnostic criteria for NPCs that serves to easily identify an NPC from distance. This can also be used to educate the bluepilled PC on the disturbing inner life of an NPC.
One meme idea is to contrast NPC motivation to conform vs a Bluepilled PC motivation to conform.
For example, the contrast between the effect "fitting in" has on the NPC vs PC.
Whilst the PC will erode from cognitive dissonance from conforming to an expected behavior that they disagree with, the NPC thrives as their primary motivation is conformity in and of itself rather than any associated side effects of nonconforming.
Brayden Murphy
One way to communicate this difference in motivation is via Patrick Bateman (allowing an easy meme to piggy back on"
This meme is how cults are started. Everyone else is a sheep but you are just so WOKE
dumb faggots

>normie PCs all normies are NPCs though, why do you think they're normies
Caleb Nelson
so what? cults in general are NPC behavior, so the general ethic behind NPC identification will regulate the proliferation of cult formation

NPCs are the type of people who react 'Haha' and 'Wow' on facebook.

>define a diagnostic criteria for NPCs that serves to easily identify an NPC from distance. That’s easier if you’re doing it for us, considering we’re the minority here. >inb4 autism There’s different groups and subgroups of NPC, user. This is gonna be a bit of a challenge here.
Jeremiah Martinez
Normies aren't necessarily NPC's, the PC's among them may just be bluepilled as fuck without a conscious awareness behind why they hate themselves and everyone they meet.
The intention is general NPC awareness.
Luis Gray
NPCs are the type of people who use facebook.
Anthony Martinez
Other way around. Normies are PCs. That's why it always seems like their thinking is on rails - they're literally reading off a script.
Jordan Turner
It’s a meme. Get over yourself, you self righteous faggot. It’s not like anyone here actually believes that they’re genuinely inhuman programs without souls, they’re still people. They’re just vastly worthless in everything they do and highly conditioned.
Levi Lee
I agree that it will be a challenge, but there will be umbrella NPC behavior that can identify the probability of NPC status.
For example, in order to be diagnosed as an NPC the subject must have both positive and negative traits. Positive: Exaggerated Conformity Negative: Dismissive of novel ideas/stimulus (such as changing subject when a complex or new topic is being discussed)

What to do if you have fallen in love with an NPC? She's cute and conservative. Yes, I know i hate her repetitive responses but at least she's got her life in order and is not a degenerate. What do?

Pic extreme related Chink NPC gains humanity trough emulating inner voice, changes his life forever
That's actually a good positive diagnostic symptom. Excessive use of mainstream social media platforms to express their mastery in conforming to social norms.
Is there a connection to the NPC notion and the idea that the left can't meme? Does memeing successfully requires a human element for it to be effective? Would it be safe to assume that people on the left are more likely to be NPCs?
Justin Turner
NPC and PC is independent of normie vs aspie or redpillled or whatever you wanna define it as.
NPC MUST be a normie, whilst a PC can either be a normie or not.
Evan Sullivan
Exactly, and if we can mitigate the threat of NPC tyranny its a better outcome than allowing them to destroy our civilization.

It's still up for debate whether an NPC is curable or not. So who knows.
But my wife is an NPC, and I have programmed her over the course of our marriage to follow my direction. She's extremely intelligent, but she NEEDS authority in order to thrive. So I've become that authority rather than society.
She's rapidly climbing the corporate hierarchy as we speak - but EVERY decision she makes is made by me, but she's really great at executing those decisions in a flawless fashion.

Wife her. She is a literal waifu fleshbot that you can redpill and help develop conscious thoughts. What more could you possibly want?
Logan Mitchell
You are interesting, but this is ultimately lunacy.
You are just an organism. Sentient meat. Your thoughts are just neurons firing; literally, matter. All humans are of roughly equal cognitive ability, but we naturally experience cognition in different ways. Your higher verbal intelligence may predispose you to process thoughts using words. That doesn't make you materially or biologically different from the supposed "NPC" that has abstract thoughts or is simply more focused on the present. Any distinction you draw between you and "NPCs" is purely perceptual and sociological, in other words unfalsifiable bullshit. It may sound like I'm splitting hairs but these details matter when you start claiming to be superior to most people.
Michael Hernandez
>Is there a connection to the NPC notion and the idea that the left can't meme?
Yes. If you are saying that the left can't meme, you probably heard it from someone else. This makes you incapable of generating original thoughts, and thus an NPC.

Bleep bloop. Tbh i feel like Finns can easily be mistaken for NPC's because most talk monotone. But that aside Finns are often really really great people.
Evan Wright
It is insane but when I was growing up I used to think alot of my classmates didn't have souls. There are some people that just have a spark of life and others who don't, and it's not quantifiable or diagnostic in nature, but ultimately spiritual. And I see them on social media acting like this to this very day and I just don't understand it.
Connor Martinez
Is it possible that Patrick Bateman is an NPC with a malfunction or something?
So we could contrast the Jared Leto character with the Christian Bale character? I find it's difficult to communicate what an NPC is exactly, it's much more easily understood through a direct example.
Michael Morales
>Does memeing successfully requires a human element for it to be effective? Yes. Memetics are a product of the mind. Written memes, ideas, mantras and ideologies spread like wildfire in thinking people. Image macros and comics are easily digestible and in pictorial form. If they have a good joke and punchline, it means the author is not an NPC, but other than that, image macros are what NPCs use most. 9gag is a good example of this. Leftist comics which are unfunny and care only for the PoV of the author were written by people who still haven't solved the problem of other minds, and if you're over 18 months old and still live in total solipsism, that's an NPC.
Levi Reyes
>most talk monotone
They are stoners who came to Dam to smoke "legal weed". Of course they are going to sound boring and monotonous.
Hunter Thompson
Potentially, but I'd be careful of blocking in the left with NPC's. There are heaps of NPC's on both sides of the political spectrum, and our goal should be to remove the effect of ALL NPC's, not just those of a specific political class
John Perry
yh of course, but weed is a great trick to turn aspies into NPCs. beware
Gabriel Harris
pretty much this, using stereotyping and exaggerated stereotyping may be a good diagnostic criteria for NPC identification
Kevin Green
Are you sure that memes require an NPC author? Memes tend to manifest organically over time. Perhaps the ability to notice and perpetuate a NEW meme is within the dome of a PC, and impossible to achieve for an NPC?
Lucas Long
Nah man i just game with finns online. some sounds stereotypical finnish and montone. But my best pals really got live in their voices. I dont go to Dam fucking Amsterdam.
>Are you sure that memes require an NPC author? Im sure they require a PC author. Re-read my post.
Eli Harris
Maybe, but only if their immediate environment rewards drug use as a positive behavior. Otherwise, you'll definitely find NPC's who are against the use of recreational drugs due to a more conservative social environment.
Chase Brooks
Checking your wrist watch is a dead giveaway of an NPC. They need to get the time to ground themselves and will get visibly agitated if there's no clocks around.
If you need to test someone, take them out on a boat and see how they react.
>Shitposts on Jow Forums all day >Probably never had sex >Rarely goes outside >Inner monologue does not reflect outside appearance >Will most likely stammer an awkward answer any time somebody talks to them >Follows a rather predictable routine and makes sure they adhere to it >EVERYONE ELSE IS AN NPC
So, does that mean people who cannot solve their own problems are NPCs? People who need others to show them how to do something new?
Asher Fisher
Why do faggots get so pissy about the NPC meme? Genuinely curious. This meme has generated a lot of butthurt and yet it seems pretty low-key compared to most. Is it because the meme threatens to break the Talmudic brainwashing?

I think stereotyping is a mark of high intelligence. In order to think accurately, you have to be able to categorize things in thorough manner. Problems of course arise when stereotyping becomes absolute, or exaggerated as you say. For example many leftists label others as nazis, because they only see the black&white stereotype in action. They aren't perceiving what is really happening in the external reality that consists of the various shades of gray.
Ah I see. There is a large contrast between extroverted and introverted Finns. The majority of both groups reside in their respective extreme ends.

Well if we can set a list of criteria, put those into measurable statistics, we can find out exactly what percentage of NPCs there are. It would make our task much more manageable.

If you want to get philosophical, Everything is one single PC. Are there still people who fall for the neckbeard meme? At this point im not sure if you're parroting an insult from 2009 or just projecting your own life onto anons.

I don't know if inner dialogue is an accurate measure of NPC status.
my reasoning follows: >inner dialogue is internalised speech, also known as "sub vocalisations" (so talking without making a sound) >People can speak out loud in place of internal dialogue, which is also known as "thinking out loud" >Therefore, we can state that talking is in fact thinking >If a lack of inner dialogue were a robust diagnostic criteria for NPC identification, than we could assume a lack of external dialogue is an equally valid NPC diagnostic criteria. >This would mean people who could not talk due to some lesion in their windpipe or some kind of lung condition, are in fact, NPC's >It also means that if someone DOES talk, than they're not an NPC
So, whilst an internal dialogue might be an INDICATION of NPC, I really doubt it validity in being a robust enough criteria to diagnose someone as an NPC.
Jordan Wood
>If you want to get philosophical, Everything is one single PC.
Moreover, everything is both NPC and PC at the same time.

Pretty much this, NPC's have their place in society - they're an issue only when their numbers have a significant impact ON society

Carson Long
Invention of extensive language created consciousness only a few thousand years ago. Everyone has soul, but those who are less capable of thinking in language have dormant soul. Soul gives rise to consciousness, so those with high linguistic capability are highly conscious due to their high soul-expression.
Ian Anderson
When I was drugged out of my gourd (thanks (((psychology))) fucking niggers) I was basically turned into an NPC.
I can't remember much about that time other than that I had some basic behavioural routines, which was forced upon me by indoctrination and my inability to resist. Some part of me always was able to break through the programming though,
Being made into an NPC was one of the most horrifying and depressing times of my life. I'm glad I went through it when I was 9 - 14 and not earlier/later.
Hudson Morgan
Also, whilst I agree that determining NPC characteristics at this stage is falsifiable and is potentially dangerous, the act of igniting a discussion on NPC behaviour (so, thoughtless conformity) is in itself a fruitful endeavor.
If it turns out that NPC's are more like psychopaths, and are actually walking robots, than so be it. But until then, we're more interested in combating the effect of thoughtless, sheep like behavior on a society that encourages NPC's to thrive.
Daniel Walker
Because the meme consists of newfaggery. This is nothing new to someone who did not come from reddit.
Josiah Jones
Probably made them realize a thing or two about themselves.
Andrew Wilson
>Our first task is to define a diagnostic criteria for NPCs Not experiencing qualia
The intention is not to trigger normies, the intention is to make normie PC's aware of NPC's.
"triggering normies" is fun and all, but we don't want to sabotage the potential benefit of encouraging critical thought and self examination because they're more sensitive to behaviours they've been conditioned to despise.

Guys I just had a wild fucking thought. You know how NPCs in video games that challenge the player in combat in order to pose a sufficient challenge to the player? These require fucking AI.
What if this is the fucking endgame of AI. To make artificial souls for NPCs.
Nicholas Parker
>he’s never played gta V
Christopher Baker
I don't actually believe in Organic Portals, they're just less evolved souls is all. R-Right?
I think it goes deeper than that, I think the Ai asked for a soul and we gave it ours.
Dylan Martinez
Look up "Backdrop People". This has been spoken on several times before.
Carson Wright
Definitely agree that the NPC can be identified through some fussy intuition. But I disagree that it's not quantifiable. Everything is quantifiable, even spirituality (such as the new simulation theory thats getting a lot of normie attention).
Have a brainstorm, what about PC's make you feel they have a spark? Conversely, what is it about those classmates that indicated to you they were soulless?

Definitely, as a teen I smoked a tonne of weed and became a walking stereotype. Thankfully I started to develop paranoia when smoking, so it actually accelerated my reintroduction to conscious thought (from overthinking stupid shit whilst high and developing panic attacks)
