no, it is full of puns and Stirner plays with the language though. I have read it in polish and translators often noted that something was lost in translation but they always add WHAT was lost. What I meant is that "Ego" has a bad connotation - with somebody who is evil, loves to hurt people and is full of himself. But is is Stirner who wrote that is is human to love

Are all actions equally selfish and why?
How do I know an action is actually egoistic and that psychological egoists aren't just mental gymnasticizing every action to become egoistic?
Explain why a soldier jumping on a grenade is selfish.
Also, what do you think about psychological-altruism?

>> No.15361633

>>15361614
You're looking at this from the wrong perspective. All roots of all actions are egoistic, but that doesn't mean the result of the action should be automatically discarded. This is why we should all be consequentialists.

>> No.15361679

>>15361614
you are saying selfish like it was something bad. but is just a fact.
you are jumping on a granade for whatever psychological gratification who start and end in you.
