It's so fucking funny how the right are literal NPCs with a culture war chip in their head that can be swapped out like a ps1 memory card for the next culture war point. (hexbear.net)

They also focused on calling their opponents "NPCs" as a way to completely dehumanise them, treat them like a mindless character in a video game that it is ok to torment and attack because their suffering isn't "real."

At its core, this is a meme about dehumanising people different from us, treating them as mindless and disposable and I don't think it's something we should encourage.

yeah. especially toxic to us since we're supposed to be fighting for the working class, not writing them off as drones. structurally the 1/3 or so of the working class that's been sucked into this has been bribed; as we start racking up working-class wins they'll start coming around.
