Very interesting video clearly put. I agree about the labels issues, and apart from obvious facts of my life i avoid them.
Most labels i might be tempted to apply to myself are conditional and have certainly been nuanced over my life as wisdom has evolved, & would now not be prepared to be pigeon holed because of certain states of current opinion (though there are certain labels i readily deny :).
I notice some people often foolishly defend their labels on principle without rethinking.
your perspective is interesting; and, i have to admit, probably true.
identity is such a hot-button topic. being gregarious, we need to identify with the herd. not all of us, but perhaps most of us. i know i do not.
i see the human being firstly--in the raw sense; then everything else comes after.
thanks for your video.
