“In the future, everything will be free. Everything will be liberated, and thus stripped of permanence, solidity, stability, certainty, and coherence. The identities people embrace will become shapeable like water—so much so that the very notion of identity will vanish. Because if everything can be anything, if everything can be labeled, defined, decorated, and marketed endlessly, then nothing is anything. An era will arrive that is so “free,” so soaked in infinite rights, that a rare few who glimpse the fundamental slavery hidden within this endless liberty will begin to yearn for authoritarian and totalitarian regimes—as if feeling nostalgia for one’s own tyrant.”
