How has the internet shaped who you are and where you feel you belong? | Political Pandora

How has the internet shaped who you are and where you feel you belong? Pandora Curated’s May 2025 edition carries the essay, 'Micro-identities Won’t Save Us: The Illusion of Liberation Online’ by Harriet Sanderson. The essay is aimed at prompting people to turn off their phones for the benefit of seeing what came before us and what will grow after us. Through the online world we possess a tool that has transformed communication and can now produce liberation movements. An individual can take on a label for themselves with autonomy and produce knowledge that offers sustenance in very fraught political times. However, online curation isn’t done in isolation but for an audience. And algorithms reward what’s beautiful, legible and easily consumed. ‘Ultimately, this is a process that pushes us inwards, away from the truth that our identities are formed in a web of connections and histories,’ Harriet explains.
