NPC

NPC - "Non-Player-Character" (noun):

A person who seems to lack critical thinking skills and agency, blindly following trends, social norms, or authority figures without questioning them. They exhibit a psychological state characterized by a lack of self-awareness and individuality, appearing to be controlled by external factors rather than their own thoughts and emotions. Basically, they're like video game non-player characters in real life.
1. "I tried talking to him about politics, but he just kept repeating the same talking points like an NPC."
2. "She never takes any risks or tries anything new—she's like an NPC, just going through the motions of life."
3. "The whole crowd was just mindlessly cheering for the celebrity, like a bunch of NPCs following a script."

NPC theory

Wow! That is a long ass article that says absolutely nothing. And you got paid for that. In it they basically say that 'NPC theory doesn't address how complicated the mind is and nudging and priming have replication issues in studies.' That's it. It wasn't a theory. It was a simile used to describe protesters (specifically) who have an absolute sophisticated understanding of topics that is fed to them from the top down and denotes how they do little more than run that script when the are speaking on those topics.
Hym "And 'Main Character Syndrome' is just more evidence that you idiots are treating propositions as though it's newton's first law and that for every proposition there is and equally true opposite position. But Main Character Syndrome isn't a thing. It relates to the soft solipsism that I always talk about but BOTH NPC theory AND Main Character Syndrome are blatant misrepresentations of what I actually said. I also wrote a Theory of Mind that was later used to create AI. So, lie of ommission. Reductio ad absurdum. And as far as the priming and nudging... I know EXACTLY what it's going to do in my case."
