Explain differential ontology to me, /lit/. Why is identity inferior to difference? Why is difference always associated with bugman-tier retroactive rationalizations of emancipatory politics like Deleuze's word-salad?

Or, conversely, if self-similarity is chad and difference is secondary and constructed as result of ressentiment, why does it always lead to paradox, contradiction or self-r*futation?

I want a good faith discussion so I'll be here to call you lot retarded faggots for having such shit opinions. Just to keep the thread going, at least for a bit.

there is no such thing as identity without difference, it is only because of difference that any one thing can be distinguished from any other

Difference merely an appereance.

It's a matter of whether or not qualities themselves are inherent and primary or relational and secondary. Not if things can be distinguished, because under both essentialist and differential ontology you have some notion of what makes an appearance. The question OP poses seems to be about what conception makes more sense.

Cringe.
