The idea of an identity disc, with a record of “everything you do or learn,” also being used as a weapon in deadly combat

…well, it seems counterintuitive from a practical perspective (if I had a personality/memory backup, I would keep it somewhere SAFE)

But

From a symbolic perspective

It is… Powerful

“this is me. This is who I am. And I will use it to FIGHT YOU”

the very literal incarnation of Weaponized Identity

the most lethal depiction of Identity Disc-ourse

….hey… when people don’t accept who we are

[User-believer, or any other important part of our self]…

then sometimes it just gets to the point of having to happen that way...
