>>1779768>'You purport that your identity should be more important than what you contribute'I dont actually, if that was not clear then let me make it. I think contribution is more important, im with hiro, moot and you on that one.
Im just saying identity doesnt actually disappear when you post anonymously, its a sad fact. Its not one I like, i just think its worth bringing to attention.
In the interests of making the tone less confrontational Id ask you to just wonder about what you have in mind when you think 'anon'? A man? is he white? Or a green person in a suit, a question mark?
I risk trivialising my argument, and yes making it very easy to contradict me, your word against mine.
People that bring minority identity into the mix do so for reasons they have a right to. they do it because they ARE a woman or latino or whatever, they do it because that matters to them, at LEAST to differentiate themselves from the so called anonymous crowd which for all intents and purposes are all white males.
