I think the subject of the nature of self is a very open and poignant topic.

The OP text is the author's opinion and my views on the matter of no-self are apolitical. The author's views were in relation to science and self.

Context is important and there are many factors in doctrines of no-self that clarify misconceptions and inferences.
