The disruptors were told they could commit mayhem with impunity.

That's why they still tried to attack a person who was literally killing them: That's not supposed to happen.

Is the programming failing?
Will more NPCs go off script and get on their own program?

Will squatters/etcetera find out the first one is free?
Will my EE rating affect my message?

I'm ready for the Lord to return.

From what I've seen Kyle Rittenhouse was never an NPC type.

As for how things went down for him. I would say he was fairly lucky. I mean the authorities could have had him shanked in prison or even publicly lynched on live TV and all that anyone could do would be to grumble, "damn Soros DA."

Ah yes they do. And they will continue to think that until proven otherwise.

Or all of reality comes falling down around their ears and all they can do is scrunch up into the fetal position, repeating fervently. "This is not happening!"

It makes more sense if you substitute 'normie' for NPC but I get the general idea. The more pressure they put on ordinary people and their normalcy bias, the more they're going to see folks start breaking the mold and acting for themselves in ways they aren't going to like.

No doubt  lot will self select out, drug themselves in a stooper, and in general fail to adjust once reality sets in.

That said its not a coincidence that the people KR shot all had a wrap sheet and violent tendencies.  There is also a core group of paid activists/revolutionaries to direct street actions.  They are well funded and are better trained than many of us would like to admit.  I do not believe they will fold like a cheap suit.

Who ordered or paid for the pallets of bricks that just so conveniently showed up at the riot locations?

In Washington state…Seattle maybe or maybe it was Portland, OR…whatever happened to the Fed cops/guards who were guarding that one Federal building (courthouse?) that were “blinded” by the rioters’s lasers?

Remember whatever FBI guy was testifying at the Rittenhouse trial and he admitted there was a better, hi def video from some surveillance aircraft or drone that night?

But it got deleted somehow?

There were rumors here in GD that there were some agitators/organizers lon the ground that night in Kenosha who were wearing IR strobes?

Were these IR strobes visible in this hi def video from the FBI?


Is that why the video was deleted?

"NPC" stands for "Non-Player Character" and is used as a metaphor to describe someone who is perceived as lacking independent thought or blindly following trends.

It is a video game reference…. Non player characters.  It is also used in reference to the theory that we are in a Matrix like simulation:

Non Player Character. It was originally a gaming term but is now being used to describe someone who’s incapable of independent thought.

It comes from video games. Generally means game characters that you interact with, but they have limited to no dialog and actions.

The three Kyle shot were all criminals, because that’s what the footsoldiers of dogshit political movements are (at least initially).

The Reds in the Russian Revolution, the Nazi Brownshirts, hell even ISIS to cite a recent example.

People with little or nothing to lose, who see a chance to commit mayhem and even “get revenge” on the normal productive types.  Of course, they mostly get “cleaned up” by their own masters once they have outlived their usefulness, but they lack the ability to foresee consequences (the hallmark of the average leftist).

The use of NPC to describe Leftist useful idiots isn’t flippant. It precisely encapsulates the absence of critical thought exhibited by the Liberals.

In video games, a Non-Player Character is an entity that's programmed to do things but has no actual will or intelligence of its own.

People have started applying this term in recent years to other people who apparently don't have the capacity for internal monologue or rational thought - they just drone through their lives blindly following whatever the TV or radio or newspaper or leader says.

What OP describes is closer to a 'normie' - someone who's not really politically engaged who just lives their life and goes through their daily routine. They may or may not also be an NPC but the concepts are separate and distinct.

We have seen it on a macro scale in Korea with the human waves of Chinese.

I haven't yet come across anything relating what the Chinese were told about the Americans and other troops defending Korea, but I am willing to bet there was some brainwashing.  Chinese physical and moral superiority, foreign troops are fragile and scared, etc.

Why?

It is a perfectly valid analogy to describe a type of behavior quickly.  

Watch people walking down a city street, and see how many are buried in their phone or are otherwise oblivious to their surroundings.

Watch at a four way stop when all sides of the intersection come to a stop at the same time. There is usually a log jam as this disrupts the normal progamming and the drivers have to find a solution.  

Go to a crowded concert and watch the behavior of the people in the crowd to any stimulus.  Especially when in anticipation of the act coming on. Any activity on stage triggers a reaction.

Just because the term originated in videogames doesn't make it stupid, invalid or negate its usage.

Language and words change over time and leisure and entertainment activities can be a source of new terms. NPC is not "dumbing down", as it is accurate, recognized and communicates a host of specific ideas quickly.

it's a reference in video game lingo - Non Player Character

basically a computer generated 'nobody'.  they are in the game designed to advance game play -- but not played by a 'real person'

if you go back tomorrow or next month -- the NPC will be in the game in the same place doing the same thing responding to prompts the same way

its trendy youth-speak

All the fed assets would catch him that evening. That "event" was covered 100% Even if he never ever used a phone the various surveillance aircraft would rewind the tapes, see Kyle arrive, shoot, then follow him to his car/home. He'd have to bicycle in from Detroit.
