Is there overlap between Rand And Stirner’s philosophy?

Pfffttt pleb, unironically, what Striner describes in that image is literally the plot of Atlas Shrugged.

lol please.
You can tell that she valued rationality whereas Nietzsche and Striner scoffed at it. Nietzsche argued master morality that takes over the tribe but is not bound by it whereas Ayn Rand argued for master morality that treats people as individuals without caring about the tribe. Gail Wynand in the Fountainhead is meant to be a representative of Nietzsche's Ubermensch that thinks he's above people but is still controlled by them because they're the source of his power.
Stirner simply created the idea of spook which Ayn Rand further developed as the anti-concept idea. Stirner also called the ego a spook which effectively makes him a nihilist. Ayn Rand considers the ego and your life to be an objective value.

The only people that think that Ayn Rand ripped off Nietzsche and Stirner are idiots who haven't read her.

Please, it becomes a spook whenever I decide it's inconvenient.
>hey you can't steal from me
>lol private property is a spook go fuck yourself
If everything is a spook, then nothing is. That's the main problem with Striner. While I agree with him on that fact that spooks shouldn't stop you from doing anything, and it's a great way to negate any duty to an abstract, it's still inherently shortsighted and nihilistic when pushed to its logical end.

This is why whenever you see people say that Ayn Rand was for property rights, Stirnerfag go
>huuuuuur private property is a spook, Ayn Rand is the spookiest of spooks
because they know damn well they don't care about private property until they're the ones getting fucked by an army of idiots coming to steal your shit. Ayn Rand understands that property rights don't exist to stop you from robbing people, they exist to stop other people from robbing you.

Here's a image for your effort, as I similarly agree that Rand > Stirner.

The spook is an idiot that can't think further than spooks. When you run away of all spook, you become spook'd by spooks themselves.

Striner has nothing on Ayn Rand nor Nietzsche.
You can tell that Nietzsche and Ayn Rand sought to overcome Nihilism while Striner wallows in it then claims he is free.

Just look at your image. It somehow assumes that acting according to your self interest and working for your boss as well as respecting property rights are mutually exclusive. How stupid is that?

It is Strinerfags that are the most spooked. Because they follow the ideology of Striner and spooks, they have deluded themselves to not follow any ideology or moral concept but their own ego. This, to them, gives them the illusion of freedom by embracing nihilism.

They are binded by spooks and, in turn, become weaker by isolating themselves from all spooks by refusing to accept any of them. They cling to Striner and nihilism for strength but it is only cowardly. They fail to understand that a spook is a spook in of itself. If you claim that everything is a spook and use that logic to not commit to anything, then you have effectively spooked yourself with spook.

Strinerfags misunderstand the singular principle of Nietzsche when he argues that on the road to becoming an Ubermensch, one should not be binded to an ideology, even Nietzsche's philosophy. Strinerfag, by judging everything as spooks, have forgotten that fact and have become weaker by chaining themselves to it. Strinerfags are spooked and know nothing.

This is why with Striner, you can be spooked for getting married, but there's nothing preventing your from actually embracing spook and marrying if your ego wills it. When you are permitted to do anything and everything, then you advocate for nothing. Similar to how you can work for your boss and respect private property rights if it follows your own rational self interest and works to your benefit.

Strinerfags would think that because working is a spook and property rights are a spook, they should not commit to either of them. By accepting the notion of spook and isolating themselves, they have become weaker for it. If working for your boss who pays you well is in your best interest, but you decide not to because it is a spook to work, then you have not followed your rational self interest and are bound to a spook.

Ayn Rand would click the button on the left but Strinerfags are so self deluded with nihilism they think Ayn Rand argues only for working for your boss rather than your rational self interest. If working for your boss is a dead end job and offers no advancements, and you think you can do better somewhere else, then you should leave.

Hell, in the Fountainhead, against her own goddamn philosophy, it ends with Howard Roark destroying private property for his own rational self interest because the building he secretly designed was bastardized. Admittedly, he should have gone to prison for breaking the law, but it shows that even Ayn Rand believed that one should follow their own rational self interest above property rights.
