>Stirner
Far from midwit. What's midwit is reading Stirner and coming out of it thinking "Haha, everything's a construct," which everyone besides a select few with the massive intelligence and supreme constitution required to understand the far-off philosophical implications and subtleties about Stirner end up getting from him. This goes for Nietzsche, too.

>inb4 what implications?
Filtered. Even if I told you, you wouldn't understand.

I do but not for being philosophically informed, nor a political spokesperson, nor a self-help guru. None of these things is he notably good at, despite the aforementioned epithets often being attributed to him in normalfag media. He's created a thought framework that I'm very fond of, and that I think is unfairly being treated as "uninspiring", "meaningless", or "far-fetched", because its content can't be neatly categorized or said to pertain to any particular tradition. The closest you'll get but which is still far from what would be right imo is to say Peterson's Maps of Meaning contributed to the tradition of analytic psychology of Carl Jung.

For the same reason the criticisms levelled against Peterson are usually met with accusations of misunderstanding his work and as a result prove insufficient in revoking the whole thesis. Experts within specific fields who find one aspect of his work to be lacking critique said lack, but fail to address the whole -- Because no vantange point from which this could be done yet exists. Peterson himself said at some point that noone had attempted a proper systematic critique of MoM.

I'm a volcel. Do I get to join the revolutionary anarchist vanguard for this brave act, even if I sometimes enjoy having a state? Genuine question.
