**"Are You Who You Think You Are? Personal Identity in the Digital Age"**
Because this was a popular topic we are launching it again!
Wine 🍷 included in cost!
*"Know thyself," said Socrates—but what if the "self" you know is just an algorithm’s echo?*
In an era where your online avatar might feel more *you* than your offline self, where dating profiles curate desire and social media molds memory, we’re asking the big, messy, thrilling question: **Who are you, really?**
Join us for a mind-bending exploration of personal identity with philosophers who dare to ask:
🔹 *Is your Tinder profile a truer self than your shy, coffee-spilling flesh-and-blood version?* (Judith Butler might say identity is performance—but who’s the director?)
🔹 *When your memories live in the cloud, are you still the author of your past?* (John Locke thought identity hinged on memory—what would he say about Instagram’s highlight reel?)
🔹 *If AI can mimic your thoughts, is your mind still yours?* (Descartes’ *"I think, therefore I am"* gets a digital-age remix.)
**Expect:**
🔥 Fiery debates (Is your "authentic self" just a retro fantasy?)
💡 Brain-tickling talks (From Nietzsche to neurotech, we’ve got takes.)
🍻 Late-night bar philosophizing (Because deep questions pair well with deep dishes.)
**Whether you’re a skeptic, a cyborg, or just someone who’s ever wondered if your ex’s curated breakup post changed who you *are*—this is your invitation.**
**BYOB & BYOS**. (You are welcome to bring your own delicious snacks to share too !)
Required Readings: [https://khaldouns.substack.com/p/what-does-it-mean-to-be-true-to-yourself ](You Are Not Who You Think You Are)
**Where:** Chicago (city of deep thought, deep dish, and deep identity crises)
**When:** Arrive Streetervile– Save your *real* (or digital) self a seat.!
**Come as you are. (But ask: *Which "you" is that?*)**
