Stirner kinda did it for me too. I still lean left in terms of having disdain for the bourgeoisie, but I don't think orthodox marxism has solutions.

Funnily enough, it was my first summer job that spurred me into leftism, they money meant nothing compared to how tiring it was.

Max Stirner

Interesting take on it. I'd say that the most crucial difference here, and indeed *the* difference between Stirner's position and Marx's (and therefore Marxist's), is that of the presupposed world: for Stirner there's no truth of the world and spooks serve themselves, for Marx ideology is false conciousness, and therefore obfuscates in service of capitalism, and once rid the real, class consciousness would be realized. Marx presupposes that the world exists outside of our perception and there are therefore perceptions that aren't aligned with it, while Stirner thinks of people (even those possessed by fixed ideas) as perfect in and of themselves and only capable of overcoming spooks according to their particular mights.

The better question is if writing is good at me.

Memes are a spook you cling to.

Meme philosophy doubly so.
