No you want to be happy, but you're haunted by the big-ass spook that is 'normal' and so you strive for happiness in the very source of your misery

What works for me won't work for you, since you're not me and I'm not you, so if you look for you by looking at me you'll find that you've become my property

Look at that boiclit

Fucking look

Being the proprietor is cool and all that but what's there to actually acquire in the anonymous and egoistic society we live in? Didn't you already win? Barring 16 year old Marxists, who is actually _not_ Stirnerian in their beliefs? Stirner himself said he loves all men because it "makes him feel good" or some shit and he used this logic for plenty of ideology he bought into. Where is the difference then between Stirner and e.g. humanists of today? Where are all the spooked "sheep" who don't put le unique one before everything else? Christfags on /lit/ or something?

My conclusion is Stirner is mental masturbation for neetfags with megalomania who seriously need to leave their basements. There I said it. Whatever. Don't even reply.

>The happiness they're experiencing is a SPOOK because they don't experience any SPOOKS, that's what you have to understand. It's SPOOKS without yang SPOOKS. If the Huxley wasn't so SPOOKED, Bernard wouldn't be so SPOOKED.

4 years ago, when this came up in college I was utterly disillusioned when I learned that people who wouldn't pull the lever/push the fat man were the majority.

I at least understood the people who got all smug and said 'this thought experiment is pointless and I don't think it has any real relevance to real reality really realness.' I didn't agree, but I at least understood where they were coming from.

But the fact that a good 75% of the class were like 'NO I WOULDN'T SAVE THE FIVE BECAUSE THEN THE BLOOD OF THE ONE WOULD BE ON MY HANDS" or "YUO CAN'T REDUCE PEOPLE TO NUMBERS OMG" or whatever similar Batman-tier moralizing just, blew my goddamn mind, and frankly made me lose hope in people.

I still try to take actions that I hope will 'bring the most happiness to the most people,' but now it's just going through the motions, a withered and vestigial viewpoint barely covering up complete nihilism for the sake of making day-to-day interactions with people more pleasant for them and for me.

Because morality is a spook. And eating meat is pleases my ego.

Allow the trolley to kill the five and then I kill the one remaining myself.
