Can't survive off identity <:omegaLUL:478283450013450276>

<:jeb:376461916509306880>

let identitarians try tbh

The people without identity lash out and slap more and more identities no them because they had none

And in turn they bolstered the Identity of Patriotic Americans

and anyone in between is people who don't need an identity because they are strong enough to stay alive without having to cling to some dream thats not based in reality

But I can see how you would feel that way if Identity™ was something of personal value to you. But to me is crude to boil down such a large variety of culture/ideas/beliefs/whatever into just a word

Community builds strength, not Identity

Identity builds Community and vice versa.

Identity does nothing,

You can slap an identity on yourself

it changes nothing

how can you have a community without identifying it

i can Identify as a Nazi, or as a SJW, it doesn't give me any more or less strength as a person

Nah, but identifying as the former will get you banned tho <:GWqlabsFeelsFunnyMan:398950861361119233>

What your ancestors did in the past has a huge influence in who you are at present, whether you like it or not..

you can forge indentity through your actions and principles, and if enough people do it you have a culture

This is why, if you control the Narrative of where we've come from, you can control where we're going.

we're all from Africa

it al depends where you start counting

Or i guess we're all from Europe if we go by that recent scientific thing 🤔

Colonialism and Slavery certainly has had a huge effect on the self image and identity Natives in England, France and of White Americans

If you don't choose your identity and direct historical narratives yourself, it will be done for you.

well i rejected mine, and here i stand

👍

My historical narratives are beign part of the Slav race, where the word for Slavery came from in the first place,
And one of the dutch who shipped slaves to America for profit

So if i'd follow my historical people i'd be a slave, or a slaver

I choose neither, and will carve my own path in life

Yes that is your identity now, you must own it <:LULW:330291809538277377>

But identity isn't important? Why think that?

I don't

you say it is

```My historical narratives are beign part of the Slav race, where the word for Slavery came from in the first place,

this i mean

why would this be important?

i'm saying theres absolutely NO importance to it

it hasn't shaped me as a person

what your ancestors did, what they believed, how they lived, you think has no effect on you?
mate every word we say, every thought we think in abstract can be traced back to our ancestors. we stand on their shoulders.

What my ancestors did and believed is of no importance to me, as i don't even know

Its what the societies in Europe did thats of importance as that laid the groundwork for modern europe

it's important to make peace with the past and have a coherent narrative just like it's important to make peace with your own Father.

It is not, whats important is having a sense of freedom, and principles on what is right and what is wrong

Your ancestors built those societies. A society is the sum total of the people that are part of it, am i wrong?

by that logic, immigrants become part of the nativies, because they become part of society

so you tell me
