>The NPC meme resonates because it's true that a lot of people respond to keywords with the same phrases.
A popular example of the last six months being "Slava Ukraine".
Repeating the phrase like a 2022 rosary prayer isn't going to do a single thing toward causing Ukraine to defeat Russia, any more than adding a Ukrainian flag to one's social media profiles will.
>And they update The Current Thing in unison.
I saw a good description (on /r/4chan, no less) of this: People who constantly check in on each other to see what the latest things are to embrace/avoid. What a miserable way to live.

Well I think this misses the point of the phrase entirely. It's not to help Ukraine defeat Russia, it is to advertise adherence to an ideology. It functions the same way as any other overt religious symbolism and sloganism.
