An NPC stands for Non-Player Character in a video game.

A play on video games “non-player character” mixed with a play on The SimulationHypothesis.

As the recent Facebook purges reveal, the Russian state has promoted fringe voices on the political left, not just the right, including groups who advocate violence, the storming of federal buildings and the overthrow of the U.S. government. Russia foments and funds controversial causes – and then foments and funds the causes opposed to those causes.”
