+The modern day world is quite identity focused I would say. Identity is
+something I both eat up and puke out, something I have my own version of but
+in a way always go back to yet keep my distance from. It is yet another word
+that been cleaned of any meaning yet used in many more ways every day. Over
+all I see identity not as something not to be celecrated, I see it as
+something to be abolished.
+
+### The anti-individualism of identity
+
+**Identity doesnt bring about individual freedom and expression: quite the
+opposite, it puts us into grandfalloons and many times it is even controlled
+by factors outside our own will even though its socially constructed from the
+core.** Hell no I say to it all. Get those grandfalloon self image cripling
+social constructs out of my face! If you ever gotten really fucking high you
+would know social identity does not follow you into the void. You instead
+start seeing yourself and thinking like a real individual. The logical and
+emolutional nuances of your geist makes themsevles clear as rest of the world
+fades out, every bias you have shows itself as a bias instead of an unarguable
+fact of nature. A similar thing happens during rem stages of sleep, no matter
+who you are and where you are in a dream those details carved into your brain
+in a strange twisted way tells you that you arent the person you think you
+are. Things that happened in the outside world seem not only to have shaped
+you but tortured you as well, distanced you from your own geist to instead put
+you in a social label: a mask you no longer know if its a mask or a part of
+your face; under it is just flesh no skin and that reality scares social
+comformists.
+
+### Descriptions instead of identities
+
+I dont identity as bisexual, I describe myself as bisexual. I dont identity
+with socialism, I describe my polical ideology as aligned with it. In the past
+I have gone ahead and made things my entire identity and it only leads to less
+freedom and more suffering. Identity makes sure I pick a option and defend it
+no matter how wrong instead of engaging in the search of truth. Knowing this
+the identities people try to push on me causes pain though I dont see those
+people worth my time anyways. You may say you are blue but that doesnt mean
+your entire identity depends on it, instead it can remain a simple fact about
+yourself and leave your geist free to travel as it pleases.
+
+### Identity and capitalism
+
+Under capitalism your entire existance as a proletariat orbits around
+capitalist production. Your job is not just something that needs to get done
+or something you do to make a living. Under capitalism your not a good worker
+unless you make it your identity. From a young age everyone is pushed in this
+direction, always asked "what do you want to be when you grow up?". Always
+told to go to college to became a professional in one field and do only that
+to the day you retire or die whatever comes first. Does it matter if you even
+like it to start with not alone the entire time? Capitalism sure couldnt give
+a fuck, they want the "you gotta do what you gotta do mindset" drilled into
+your head. Capitalism fucking hates jack of all trades, they want someone who
+has an entire college degree to push a button and cant do anything else. Talk
+about systematic crimination against ADHD lol. To top things off they make it
+so peoples entire self worth is centered around their job they ~~picked~~ got
+forced into.
