Is 4chan's anonymity a true Dionysian dissolution of the self into the 'Primordial Unity', or is it just the ultimate refuge for those who lack the Will to Power to be actual individuals in the real world?
>>
It's a reaction against the "look-at-me" narcissism that pervades the online world.
>>
Anonymity is nice because every post stands only on itself.

I just want to feel your cock cum when I fuck your arsehole mate. No need to get Greek.

the latter
posting with anonymity—as opposed to persistent identity—is a means to dodge internal consistency in your beliefs, statements and the responsibilities and challenges being consistent entails.

>Identity is persistent
Only in the manner that syphilis is persistent.

that really not a very informative retort.
did you recycle it from a movie or something?

Your prior argument imported persistence of Identity as a good, without having argued for it.
Calling identity a sexually transmitted disease leading to madness and death challenges your importation of undemonstrated "Good."
Secondly, like syphilis, identity is sexually transmitted in that the creation of humans normally involves sex or libidinal desire, and that the creation of the human itself involves libidinal trauma (cf: Lacan, Kristeva). This makes it an "apt metaphor" so more than merely a retort pointing out your flaws, I challenge the centrality of your category to being.
Thirdly, attempting to maintain an identity against The Real's continuous unsymbolisable penetration of you is a fools errand: your claim of the ideal is an impossible task, and one of no value.
Fourthly, like syphilis, identity can be cured with modern chemical treatment.
