- TimTheTinker 5y agoFascinating article - in my opinion, this is the real result of "find yourself" education and encouraging expressive individuality. Instead of becoming a means of expressing oneself, these categories of identity and experience have made their way into institutions and become the primary lens through which institutions evaluate people -- increasingly more so than actual objective standards. The result is that by tearing down objectivism in favor of self-expression, we've actually lost both.
