I don't think you read my comment or the article carefully. The extreme end of that article, giving up all your identity is my "sick mindset". That is the ultimate conclusion.

You might as well not comment if you're not going to read anything. I don't care for you comment otherwise. Better for you to start actually thinking and stop mistaking that for "over thinking", because your reply indicates you haven't.

...giving up all your identity is my "sick mindset".

So drop it already. The article isn't about "the extreme end" anyway. There's a middle ground between being a soulless robot and a sheep, isn't there?

Drop what. Again you didn't read the article. The article isn't about how far you go. It's only about how identity is correlated with stupidity. The more identity you have the stupider you are.

It doesn't talk about taking it to the extreme.

This isn't something you can drop. There are caricature movie characters that are in similar predicaments. If I name them you will understand. Rick Sanchez and Thanos. The term is cursed knowledge. You cannot undo knowledge gained, once you have it, it sticks with you.

Thanos is a villain. The slaughter he conducts is horrifying, yet his logic has a truth that he cannot deny. In the end it's the avengers who delude themselves.

Rick Sanchez would be more similar to where I am. Knowledge of the cold hard truths and apathy towards everything.
