Identity has no intrinsic value. Identity must be fully instrumental to what you want to do, it's a costume to be worn and changed as needed. Unconditional identity is a spiritual disability, it has no claim to moral value, it obscures the conscious perception of the human mind.
@Plinz Im sure theres a specfic circumstance ur thinking of where this rings true. But most ppls identity is formed by their birthplace, childhood, religion; historical, societal, physical facts. The globalist chameleon identity with no roots, place or family: perhaps thats unspiritual.
@Plinz For example. A big part of Australian Aboriginal spirituality is a connection to country/place. Many western ppl, identiy formed by the place they grew up etc. Its a luxury to be a identity-chameleon. Seems like a limited generalisation.
@julius_sky My being born into a beautiful valley in a country that does not exist anymore, as part of a displaced family, is not a currency that entitles me to a configuration of the universe. It's a story that I can tell myself, but if I believe it, I replace experience with narrative.
@Plinz i agree identity doesnt entitle someone to something (only in the limited sense of legal rights of all citizens in a specific country). But on the other hand i think a one world governmnt which tried to abs tract away nations would fail due to being too centralised & beuraucratic
@julius_sky The question is not whether the story I tell myself about myself is factually true, but whether I believe that I am a story. What turns me into Rachel Dolezal is not the falsehood of a narrative, but the deeper lie that a narrative captures my actual relationship to the world .
