Identity has become a toxic mimic of identity. I am who I am. My name is my name, and my various physical characteristics are what they are. Each of those are used by others to identify me. To call it "my identity" though reduces me to those identifying characteristics. To flip it around and say "my identity" is something other than my physical characteristics and my name and, going further out on the limb of imposition, to expect others to then refer to me according to this upside version of identity is asking them to stop using their own senses and reasoning skills to see me as they see me. It seems to me to be similar to identifying as the things you like to by-- to go from "I drive a Mercedes" to "I am a Mercedes driver".

No one's sense of their own identity helps anyone in any way at all, not even themselves. it only limits them and distracts others.

I agree abut Jenna Marbles. I thought she was pretty funny, but I think she has great potential in comedic acting or just acting. I thought she absolutely killed it in the "Epic Rap Battle" as "Eve". Untalented people shutting down talented people is nothing new, and talented people being so insecure about it and being cowed by these sad pathetic untalented jealous clowns is also nothing new. Comedy and art is supposed to tweak noses and bother some people, it is also supposed to be just bad and cringy as people who are young and still figuring out how to do it. She, and we, lost a lot when she blinked when the woke mob of losers was staring her down.
