Where? Because your demon sounds like exactly what I'm talking about, and it illustrates some kind of weird disconnect. If these "copies" don't have my memories (nor much of my personality, if I understand the motivation for this scenario, nor my genes or appearance), why should I identify with them? And what do you picture happening to these strangers that upsets you so?
No, I'm saying that under Dust Theory our memories and perceptions ground us in our universe, and that losing grasp of them blurs the outside world beyond recognition.
