How is this guy different than just an even more retarded version of Thrasymachus or something?

*lifelong hissy fit*

Why do leftists love Stirner but hate Ayn Rand?

I find nothing wrong about it but I do not publicly broadcast that I use it. If I do find a book I really enjoy from it I tend to buy a physical copy, besides resale for books exists and those profits don't necessarily go towards the owner of the work anyhow. also I do what I want within reasonable means

>talk about a piece of continental philosophy while using any logic whatsoever
>multiple angry responses
>"This was meant to be taken as a strictly historical spiritual work!"
>"The complex interplay of historiography with logos with ascetic jouissance clearly went over your head!"
>long winded "literary interpretation"

Damn... You guys are really fucking intellectually bankrupt.

>purged all spooks and floating in the spiritual and ideological void
>refuse to follow any system of ethics or actions
>as soon as I think of one worthwhile sounding heuristic or rule ("Work hard" or "Stop eating junk food except when socially with other people") the rest of the voices and tendencies in my head gang up on it and proclaim me to be an idiot for thinking that

Guys, I've managed to set aside all dogma and ideology. My mind is unspooked, whatever you want to call it. What did you do next? I feel like my desire for guidance and a code / life philosophy is a weakess. No code could possibly tell you what to do in all situations. Even desires seem like some sort of socially constructed straitjacket.

I trust my tastes and intuitons but you never know whether or not the modern world is set up to take advantage of you for this, even if you are aware of it. I don't eat every bit of carb filled chocolate in sight to plan for starvation but I still worry about this.

What did you do after being fully unspooked?

Is there any kind of underground movement for authors who accept plagiarism - at least in part -as a valid method of composition? Because there totally should be.
