I know no "commandment of the reply", I am only replying to you, my little misreading property, for my own self enjoyment.

>He goes in enough detail in his opposition to capitalism in favor of the union. Egoist communism is his philosophy.

Stirner was a communist, but his ideology [...]

Now, I am replying to you, but not responding to you, I will let Max do the talking.

>But the individual is unique, not a member of the party. He unites freely, and separates freely again. p.196

>As party it is already a born society, a dead union, an idea that has become fixed. p.197

>What matters the party to me? I shall find enough anyhow who unite with me without swearing allegiance to my flag. p.197

>Are the own or unique perchance a party? How could they be own if they were such as belonged to a party? Or is one to hold with no party? In the very act of joining them and entering their circle one forms a union with them that lasts as long as party and I pursue one and the same goal. But today I still share the party's tendency, as by tomorrow I can do so no longer and I become "untrue" to it. The party has nothing binding (obligatory) for me, and I do not have respect for it; if it no longer pleases me, I become its foe. p.198

>Communism seeks to check its course, spreading the belief that the human is not worth so much discomfort, and, with sensible arrangements, could be gained without the great expense of time and powers which has hitherto seemed requisite. But for whom is time to be gained? For what does man require more time than is necessary to refresh his wearied powers of labor? Here Communism is silent. For what? To take comfort in himself as the unique, after he has done his part as man! p.220

>Only in the union can you assert yourself as unique, because the union does not possess you, but you possess it or make it of use to you. p.251

>Now, as my object is not the overthrow of an established order but my elevation above it, my purpose and deed are not a political or social but (as directed toward myself and my ownness alone) an egoistic purpose and deed. p.254

>My intercourse with the world, what does it aim at? I want to have the enjoyment of it, therefore it must be my property, and therefore I want to win it. I do not want the liberty of men, nor their equality; I want only my power over them, I want to make them my property, material for enjoyment. And, if I do not succeed in that, well, then I call even the power over life and death. p.255

If you still think he's a "Communist", in any non-head canon sense of the word, then anon, neither me nor Max have anything left to say to you.
