Looks like it was made by a bunch of nerds who want to feel superior to everyone else despite their lack of success in life.

At least that's how it strikes me.

The NPC meme sprang from a study which purported to show 80% of people have no inner monologue. It wasn't political at all; it's since been hijacked by right-wingers. I'm convinced that many of the MAGA people are, in fact, NPCs, because they all spout the same words like trained parrots. If you believe in simulation theory- and I do- NPC hypothesis might be an integral component.

what is inner monologue?

Speaking to yourself in words. Playing out imaginary scenarios in your mind, imagining what other people might say and react to. Stuff like that.

How did they determine 80% of people don't do that? I'm pretty sure everyone I've ever known does that.
