[QUOTE="pariah, post: 78507, member: 235"] Largely agree with this division of people into "setters" and "catchers", though I'm unsure how to relate this to NT. The setters are the shepherds, and the catchers their flock. There's only one shepherd, but plenty of cattle to go around. The catchers are the tools by which an ideology, or a community, remains intact, and it is their purpose to to incessantly propagate it and defend it from the inside by deriding any who may so much as slightly deviate from its generally accepted axioms, as if the absolute and objective truth has already been reached, and that there can never be any improvement or adjustment to what has already been established. Thus, these people can never be producers of new knowledge, nor do they contribute to the ideology from a theoretical and scientific perspective. They're mere ant workers and laborers. This can be interpolated to the incelosphere, or incel forums in particular, where everyone is so quick to scream and shout "cope" "bluepill" at any novel idea or new framing of the already accepted worldview. To be a catcher, a parrot, is the easiest path to gaining status in a community or culture (is this where the NT part comes in?) [/QUOTE]
