At some point, and maybe that point is now, the S1/S2 distinction becomes too vague to be helpful, and it doesn’t help that people can use the terms in very different ways. Let me say something more specific: a common form of internal disagreement is between something like your urges and something like your explicit verbal goals. Many people have the habit of identifying with the part of them that has explicit verbal goals and not endorsing their urges. I don’t; I identify with the part of myself that has urges, and am often suspicious of my explicit verbal goals (a lot of them are for signaling, probably).
