Abstract
- The article focuses on the proliferation of identity markers in online profiles, highlighting how individuals construct and curate personas across various platforms, often using emojis, preferred pronouns, and other signifiers. It argues that despite our eagerness to define our identities in such ways, we may be mistaking constructed images of ourselves for true identity, influenced by Lacanian theory and the limitations of language.
