This must have been the worst book I've ever read; not even the inconsistency of the premises, but the sheer lack of scope. How many freaking times can you say the same thing, over and over again? At least 200 pages too long, what a waste of time that was.

It is a complete piece of crap, but it's hilariously edgy. Stirner's philosophy is itself, a nothing to him, but, it was truly quite edgy to spit in Hegel's face like that at the time. That's why we love it.

I'm a big Stirner Fan and I can't refute any of those claims because they are true. The book is way too long and drones on about completely retarded shit often. I love the message and the meme though, so I will keep spook posting.

He's mirroring the self development of Geist that's a spiral route.

in the preface the translator was already backpedaling - it's just a prank bro!

>hehe, all abstract concepts and social constructs are spooks. welcome to the free world kid; no gods no masters. hehe
>oh, except the enlightenment concept of the self, the individual, the ego etc. that's 100% real and isn't an historically contingent formulation that doesn't implicitly contain within it accordingly contingent social and anthropological assumptions. you can't criticize that bro

i think his core ideas are pretty smart but yes it repeats itself and is way too long.

i was sick and depressive when i last read it and it seemed a kind of despairing philosophy to me. i hope to read it again some day when i'm feeling on top and have a laff at life and spooks with max as one who knows his own property and power

Aside form your point, when looking online I've seen this edition is going for some stupid amounts - 400 in some cases. Why is this?
