To them, the identity has to be about being self-centered. And first off, I don't see what's wrong with that. Whether they identify that way because they are "self-centered", or they have a disorder that makes them identify as or feel like a God, or any other reason, that's valid. What does it matter? Reasons do not mean action. Why they identify that way is not guaranteeing how they will act. So why assume they must be "evil" and "manipulative"?

Second off, at least in my experience, I feel quite the opposite way. My deitykin identity makes me feel worse about myself oftentimes. (As in how I experience it, not the act of identifying with that label.)

Because all I can think as I look at the state of the world is- "If I just had my powers, if I just had my deity abilities, I could fix it. I could help so many people. I could save so many. I could make it better."

And maybe by definition that is egotistical. To think I alone can change the world. But it isn't in the way people assume it would be. I don't feel pride. Just guilt. Guilt at not being able to do what I could if I was my deity self. I don't identify as a deity because I think so highly of myself. Instead, sometimes I feel so low about myself because I'm a deity. Because I'm a deity who can't do anything godlike.

If that sounds "evil", then that's fine.

Besides, as I said, I think it's fine if those who identify with such labels do so for "evil" reasons.

It's not grape, it's rape.

It's not pew pew, it's gun.

It's not unalive and unalived, it's murder and murdered.
