how is an identity important at all if it is only known to you? this is not the identity i asked about?

2019-01-02 22:31:41 UTC  

Racial identity (or gender and so on) should not be taken into consideration in anything that is not related to medical treatments. Ever.

2019-01-02 22:32:00 UTC  

again, thats not what i asked about.

2019-01-02 22:32:06 UTC  

If that is what you were asking about...

2019-01-02 22:32:24 UTC  

though i would disagree on the latter statement

2019-01-02 22:32:59 UTC  

i don‘t seem to understand what you mean by identity then.

2019-01-02 22:33:55 UTC  

There has never been anything positive achieved by taken racial (and so on) identity into account.

2019-01-02 22:33:57 UTC  

see above. i already defined identity earlier as a higher concept,
under certain terms

2019-01-02 22:34:09 UTC  

define a higher concept

2019-01-02 22:34:30 UTC  

@GoldenPhoenix
be lucky. there ya go

2019-01-02 22:35:09 UTC  

Thats... not an identity?

2019-01-02 22:35:11 UTC  

racial profiling?

2019-01-02 22:35:19 UTC  

you mean that

2019-01-02 22:35:23 UTC  

no

2019-01-02 22:35:33 UTC  

where i come from, race doesnt even exist

2019-01-02 22:35:53 UTC  

america?

2019-01-02 22:36:03 UTC  

and no, thats a higher concept @I AM ERROR

2019-01-02 22:36:32 UTC  

No thats an statistical anomality.

2019-01-02 22:37:02 UTC  

???

2019-01-02 22:37:07 UTC  

That doesn't explain what a higher concept is

2019-01-02 22:37:28 UTC  

you asked ot define one

2019-01-02 22:37:36 UTC  

so i did

2019-01-02 22:37:42 UTC  

No, define "higher concept"

2019-01-02 22:37:49 UTC  

oh okay

2019-01-02 22:38:57 UTC  

a higher concept is a a way to act or be that follows a certain defined set of rules.

2019-01-02 22:39:05 UTC  

thats more or less accurate

2019-01-02 22:39:37 UTC  

identity is for everyone different, it is what makes you you

2019-01-02 22:39:38 UTC  

That sounds like morals, not identity

2019-01-02 22:39:51 UTC  

Or ethics

2019-01-02 22:40:20 UTC  

but it isnt

2019-01-02 22:40:35 UTC  

i could try to give a guideline but since im not the same person as any of you (as far as i know) identity is different as everyone chooses for themself what they use to define themself

2019-01-02 22:41:09 UTC  

being lucky is a higher concept that can be part of a larger identity (super-identity, if you will)
that doesnt involve ethics or morale

2019-01-02 22:41:20 UTC  

You don‘t act in a way that makes you lucky?

2019-01-02 22:41:37 UTC  

i think everyone does

2019-01-02 22:41:46 UTC  

you dont have to act to be lucky, true

2019-01-02 22:41:53 UTC  

But being lucky isn't an identity, it's a trait, and a delusional one

2019-01-02 22:42:14 UTC  

If you could do that it would literally remove the „lucky“ part from it.

2019-01-02 22:42:14 UTC  

being lucky is a higher concept

2019-01-02 22:42:18 UTC  

doesnt matter here. its about identity. which you cant always choose

2019-01-02 22:42:55 UTC  

Identity is perception, which can always be chosen

2019-01-02 22:42:57 UTC  

identity is something youre identified as
