Came up with a weird definition Identity is how you care about the world

By this definitive I have a fairly weak identity. Which is why jokes about earth being destroyed by a Vogon constructor fleet are really funny to me. Also, they’re funny because I have a very juvenile sense of humor but that’s not relevant here.

Babies don’t really have an identity in my sense until quite late. Also competence of course matters.

So a person with a strong affinity for something but doesn't "care" about it. Is that more like a pre-identity? I'm picturing a little kid in awe of dinosaurs.

Well they do care. They want dinosaurs to become more real. They’d prefer more and better dinosaur movies and toys than less. The intentions/preferences regarding X don’t have to make much sense.
