1/3rd is devoted to the topic of Feuerbach, religion, idealism etc.

As to op. This is the best version. Has a good introduction in it as well with quality footnotes. I would suggest reading Phenomenology of Spirit first so you can understand the Hegelian Dialectic which Stirner is also attempting to refute in the book.

>Not reading the work which caused him to get so anal about shit

It still puts a forth a pretty good argument. Debasing of individuals is something which is required by communism. It's pretty evident in the way things went about with the USSR. There is no separation of "private" or "public". Anything which is to antagonize to public will be given to the public. Everything has to be general so that no one has anything in both a material sense and a sense of being. It is based on two parts. One is that you are a "man". The second is that you are a "laborer". If you don't hold up the labor bargain then you are lazy and the state wants nothing to do with you. The "man" is for show, as an affirmative under what the state grants you as being "man". You're just slaving yourself to more ideals rather then being. In communism, you are defined by the work you do and you are belonging to the state. Then there are inherent contradictions of the very notion of state within communism, revolutions etc etc.

Which edition did you get because that's the first i've ever heard anyone say that. This is the best one. It has a great introduction as well.
