The process of allowing newly obtained information, over a period of time, to change your beliefs in such a way that are you no longer capable of seeing differently than your beliefs.
After graduating from college, it was clear to her friends that Karen had been identity washing herself; she would become enraged if you disagreed with her.
When a person can be identified by their vocabulary & delivery rather than just their physical appearance.
Verbal Identity is one’s choice of words, phrases, voice projection, tone/pitch when communicating.
Essentially, one’s communication style.
Example: “I like her, she has a unique verbal identity that captures a room when she speaks”
Monologue:
Brendon: “I like the cute little blonde, she’s unique”
Scott: “Mate, They are all cute blondes so nothing unique here, I can’t see the difference TBH”
Brendon: “Solid point, well she’s the one that talks differently, she uses unique words & phrases to describe things, it’s kinda cute really”
Scott: “Really, how so”
Brendon: “ like when you ask her how she is, she responded with ‘magic’ or when she refers to her feet as tootsies, or cuddles as snuggies etc”
Scott: “Yeah, ok, I know what you mean, she has her own vocal identity”
When a user-member on the BeatYourTruck.com forum can't decide on a permanent avatar and so eludes to a recurring format of unfamiliar and somewhat uncomfortable recognition.
At first I didn't recognize that avatar, but upon closer inspection it turns out that noob moderator has a mixed identity.
When someone has been pressured to identify themselves, but is not yet self aware, by someone claiming to be an authority.
This often comes up with police trying to get your ID, school wanting to know about family and what you eat for breakfast, politics whating you to side with a party instead of refusing to get involved in party politics and be an issue based voter.
Not to be confused with sexualy orientation by way of identity, social identity in that how you look is not your identity but how other people precieve you and in turn treat you.
I'm a cis gender male and just took a college class notlw I'm having an identity crisis, am I vegan?
The historic root of human dysfunction. The sense that each of us belongs to a group - or tribe - from which we derive our idea of who we are, what we call ourselves, what we believe, whom else is a member and who is excluded.
Whether rooting for a sports team or voting along party lines, we divide ourselves into 'us' and 'them', as humans have done for millennia. It leads us to war. At a minimum we endure a chronic state of para-warfare.
He could not fathom how she had voted for Biden! She in turn looked with speechless amazement at his mindless devotion to ... she could not bring herself to utter that reviled name! Neither could ever change the other's mind by an inch. They were exemplars of tribal identity, each believing their side was right, the other side wrong, the finding of middle ground a fantasy for Springsteen/Jeep commercials during the Super Bowl - itself a tribal enactment - and nothing more.

She could not fathom how he had voted for Biden! Could he not see that he was a senile communist who was out to turn America into... well... into something... a socialist state where voter fraud would flourish, where vaccination was mandatory, like enforced mask wearing, which is exactly what the Nazis did?? She had heard it on TV.
Her friend looked with speechless amazement at her ethical, moral blindness, at how she could possibly have had her soul sucked dry by Rush, that imbecile, before having it entirely excised by Fox, how she could find a single redeeming quality in... he could not bring himself to utter the name... in that vacant-eyed, failed racist sea slug of a moronic, narcotized lying narcissistic gameshow host who wanted to overthrow our cherished democratic ideals and establish himself as dictator, as Putin's brain-dead errand boy!

An excuse for heroes to make themselves more gay by being themselves.
What is your Gender Identity?
Demigod. Don't mis gender me, you blight.
