"personal self" = my "image", expectations of myself and ideas of who I am/what defines me?

Ipseity as a biological, political, social, etc. construct. You can believe it literally exists in some sense or you can believe it's really some kind of administrative strategy that's been reified, I'm inclined towards the latter, would like at least to imagine alternatives.

I'm inclined towards the latter. How would we move beyond?

I have no idea but my current strategy is to try to understand it well enough to reinterpret it under transcendental syntax.

I don't necessary *recommend* him... just this project of transcendental rejection of the self has been tried before and it leads to militant progressivism

(because the only way to interpret the post-self as nonetheless having selflike properties is, with respect to the "promethean" capabilities of "the human race" or its techno-social agglomerations, as these organize themselves in time)

the basic problem is that rejecting all formats doesn't work, championing a specific format doesn't work and just letting multiple random formats duke it out probably stagnates too eventually. Kinda running out of options.
