all electrons are the same, all the building blocks are. The pattern is the only unique thing. Disrupt the pattern disrupt the self. This is what we observe and your objection is no longer valid. Gold or helium same stuff in unique arrangements. Human and helium same stuff, new pattern. Alter the pattern alter the experience
There are no special electrons, every electron is the same. But there are unique patterns. The pattern is what makes you. You can give it several names referring to the same arrangement of electrons. The identity is in the pattern not the stuff. migkiller not killmiger, the name you give it refers to the pattern and not to any other pattern the same stuff can be broken into.
the patter is always evolving, like a flock of birds, it is still the same flock. Like gello. Fluid but still consistent. You could not be static and be alive but you can not be rearrange and be you. You can not learn or experience and be static. You evolve with limits. Injuries that overflow the limits alter you. Suddenly you can't recognizing your own hand as yours. or understand faces
Every electron is exactly the same, there would be no difference at all if you switch one out, there is no need for metaphysics. The physical body with all it can do will not change by switching electrons. Any ghost in the machine is not needed but the pattern is. Why do you think every other cell is replaced but the brain
Thanks for doing this Ishta, I don't know how I missed this video before.

ishta, learn what an identity relationship is.

ishta, the "pattern" of electrons is always changing. Therefore, given your own account of personal identity, there is no identity.

"you would still be you!"
so the maker of that video is using physics to conduct metaphysics? LOL
