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.
