Our identity is something we hold in highest priority…to maintain a uniqueness that defines us, and separates us from the rest. And yet, what we also hold dear are things that hold us together, for as is evident, man is a social being…religion, for example. We struggle, put our differences aside and go into war for religion. But even this unification is flawed, due to the diversity that exists within this idea.
Uniqueness is beauty. Without uniqueness, there will be no excitement, no joy, no sorrow. And here the question must be put forward…is our identity so precious that we may ignore the millions of deaths caused by an intolerance that slowly yet steadily builds up against ideas and views that others hold in reverence?
For a solution exists…efficient, but loathed by everyone, including me. The removal of uniqueness. The death of identity. To forge a machine that all of mankind will be units of, no more.

I've always advocated this opinion too. Maybe if we were all the same, and there were no relationships with anybody, like some robotic world. Wait, I'll save all that for my blog!
