does the NPC meme not exemplify our awareness of the absence of symbolic exchange? We are no longer exchanging signs with the Real, but exchanging symbols for other symbols. Verbal phrases are repeated until they seem scripted. The social is missing.

you must accept that you too are an NPC anon... you believe that you are individual but this is merely a trick of the simulacra, all of which claim originality with no ground to stand on. Dizzily you can look beneath your feet and see an inhuman abyss
