I think he means that no one agrees with all the points of his/her espoused ideology. It's human to deviate from it a bit.

that's very strange way to look at ideology... but even if it is this external, calling somebody a stupid sheep when you don't disagree with your favorite ideologues/public intellectuals is kinda too much for me. We, the 7 billion people, cannot all have different, unique ideas.

Sure. But I don't think he was saying: agreement = stupid sheepness. I don't know the context, but what I took from his comment was: not complete agreement = humanness/agency (not an NPC). But of course there is also going to be a LOT of overlap with the thinkers you agree with.

hmmmm.. I would be more inclined to see it as you describe, if the "NPC meme" wasn't a known alt-right dog whistle, an attack on anyone on the left brewed at 4chan. Along the lines of the picture I post with this. But I also just might be paranoid, cuz I read too much of this.pic.twitter.com/eneZmjO90q

It isnt an attack on "anyone" on the left, just the brainless drones that repeat buzzwords like "dog whistle" and blame the "alt-right" for a growing movement that led to normal Americans being unhappy enough to vote for Trump.pic.twitter.com/8c3vLNy3kd

Those are not buzz words, those are words that hold very relevant meaning. Also, I'm not an American, don't care about your elections too much. This discussion goes beyond one politician, and is fairly international. I only blame alt right for what it actually does.

Great. Please explain how this NPC meme is a dog whistle.

If I do I'm sure you will deny everything as nonsensical conspiracy or something. But if you think that some of the "liberal values" or "dislikes Pepe" is purely accidental, and/or doesn't have anything to do with how some of those people communicate... there is no help.

Considering it has no hidden meaning and it essentially calling out, to their face, their zombie-like hive behavior, it cant be described as a dog-whistle. It is an insult, for sure, but a warranted one. Good luck with those talking points.

dislikes Pepe is a warranted insult and has no hidden meaning or doesn't point into any specific direction? maybe alt-right adopting Pepe back then? nothin? talk about zombie-like. Good day to you sir.

Dude what the fuck are you talking about Pepe when I've been consistently questioning you on the NPC meme.

have you even looked at the the actual meme I posted? Or do you just see trigger words and start to call everyone zombie?

Yes. No. Why did you call it a dog whistle when you cant back it up?
