>>4253096Selling all your stuff because you think you're going to "find yourself" is typical thinking of depressed people. No matter what it is, they feel buried and burdened by everything that is. It's literally a form of insanity. Either that or you have an inferiority complex where you never deserve anything and it's all wasted on you. That's also insanity.
>Muh products muh gear is my identityNo, it's something that is more important. It's your capital. It's your power and leverage. Capital = power is the one and only state of nature. Resources. Even commies know this, which is why the party monopolizes all capital immediately.
If you have two cameras and seven lenses, you have more capital than the zen beta cuck who thinks he is going to find his true artistic talent with an x100v (that he will also sell and exchange for a digishit) and totally cant do it if he has a d850 in his closet. Go shoot a wedding, don't give a fuck if they hate it, they pay first and get photos later, and now you have even more. Money so bad right? Having things isn't all it is? Capital, through exchange, converts to:
Housing
Fresh water
Food
Personal safety
You can not even raise children without capital. They will be taken and raised by someone who has it. No capital means you are a genetic dead end.
The scariest part is: You are also capital. Even commies know it, which is why the part immediately strips people of any pretense of "rights". But - IS that and SHOULD that be your identity?
Why do you keep going back to MUH IDENTITY? Is food your identity? Is water your identity? I hate to break it to you, but you are also materially food and water. Capital is just another resource, the ultimate one, that guarantees access to all others.
Why is your identity tied to your resources? Do you have any personality traits other than that? Why is it always identity?
Was buying all these lenses part of an insane plot to become a photographer through osmosis?
