Edmund Husserl once warned a small audience about the "seducing power" of »Der Einzige« -- but never mentioned it in his writing.

Leszek Kolakowski said that Stirner, next to whom "even Nietzsche seems weak and inconsequent," is indeed irrefutable; nevertheless, he must be banished at any cost, because he destroys "the only tool that enables us to make ethical values our own: tradition." Stirner's aim of "destruction of alienation, i.e. the return to authenticity would be nothing but the destruction of culture, a return to an animal state ... to a pre-human condition."

Hans Heinz Holz warned that "Stirner's egoism, were it to become actualized, would lead to the self-destruction of the human race."

Apocalyptic fears might have driven Jürgen Habermas in his younger years to condemn the "absurdity of Stirner's fury" with furious words -- and since that time never to mention Stirner again, even in texts about Left Hegelianism.

Theodor Adorno, who saw himself driven back at the end of his philosophical career to the -- pre-Stirnerian -- "standpoint of Left Hegelianism," once cryptically remarked that Stirner was the only one who really "let the cat out of the bag," but in no way referred to him in any of his works.

Peter Sloterdijk took note of none of this, only shaking his head at the idea that the "brilliant" Marx had "grown angry in many hundreds of pages about those, after all, simple thoughts of Stirner."

"This was accompanied by a solemn facial expression. While I attentively observed his features, these changed again, and he made something like a dispelling, dismissive movement with his hand, and spoke under breath: 'Well, now I have told you, even though I did not want to speak of it. Forget about it. They would talk about a plagiarism, but you will not do that, I'm sure.'"

Max Stirner was a psychological egoist (meaning he believed everyone is an egoist whether they want to be or not, and even asserted that if God exists, God must be an egoist). He was a moral nihilist, and said even might didn't make right because right and wrong don't exist. He rejected family, nation, society, law, and the property of others as "spooks", that is concepts people use to trick themselves into believing they aren't egoists. Max Stirner believe you own whatever it is you use, be it an idea, person, feeling, thing, etc. for whatever reason (love, conservation, or anything else). But that any claim of ownership beyond use was just a spook and made a god of property for crypto-egoists to kneel to.

Actually all of Marx' critique was rendered obsolete by 'Stirner's Critics' published in 1845 (unlike Marx' critique, which wasn't published in Marx' lifetime).

>> No.6247056

That's a pretty ridiculous argument. That's like saying an artist that uses draftsmen to complete his paintings isn't producing original work.

>> No.6247071

Stirner is the last realization that a man can have in the earth. For us it's extremely childish to prove you wrong or right to others, it's like that child that tries to prove that killing animals is wrong to his grandfather and feels impotent while doing it. Guess what, the grandfather doesn't care about it, he just does it because he can, he doesn't need to be right or correct to do whatever the fuck he wants.

And if you want to stop the grandfather, you will have to enter in that dialectic, in the struggle for power and influence. So go ahead marxists, moralists, etc, try to prove you that you are right and pure, while everyone just don't take you seriously since you don't have the power to make it true (true in the sense that it happens).

I'm not on Marx's side on almost any issues, but this seems a bit myopic. Sure, people can do what they want. But what happens when 'might' operates through language, and chooses the promotion of a moral order as its project? What if it knows how to play to inherent features of the human mind, like empathy, tying its edicts into this inherent pre-moral features of the brain? If such a project succeeds what we have is something that functions basically like an 'objective' morality.

I saw Max Stirner at a milk store in Leipzig yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn't want to be an involuntary egoist and bother him and ask him for precepts or anything.

He said, “Oh, like you’re being now?”

I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “spooks! spooks! spooks!” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw Sancho trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen milk bottles in his hands without paying.
The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.

When she took one of the bottles and started weighing it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to weigh them each individually “to prevent any ethical infetterence,” and then turned around and grinned at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she weighed each bottle and put them in a crate and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

There are 7 billion people in the world and 99.999999% of them have never heard of Stirner and never will. And if they did, far fewer could possibly comprehend it- few on /lit/ even can get past that "ooh edgy" stage.

Depends entirely, it can be, or can not. If them becoming a voluntary egoists causes their interests to align with yours, and it is easier to get these interests to align thus than by other means, then it is obviously in your interest for them to be a voluntary egoist.

By fuck shit up I mean fuck shit up for me personally. Let's say someone realizes morality is a spook and I have a nice TV, so they take it, this conflicts with my interests. Besides I don't think anyone qualifies as spook free, can't a spook align with your causes? or does it then stop being a spook?

Stop thinking in terms of what other people do. That's the categorical imperative spook. You want yourself to have more power and more property than others, period.

Stirner also says might is right, you don't have a right without the might to keep it. So get mighty, or get fucked.

>Stirner also says might is right,
He says nothing is right, including might. Indeed, for might to be right, weakness would be "wrong", which is an extremely spook proposition. Might is not right, just, holy, or anything like that, it is simply might.

In my translation he literally says "might is right". He doesn't mean might makes right, and would agree with you. He's saying it tongue-in-cheek; he's saying that "rights" can only be understood as power.

>17. With regard to the superstitions of logicians, I shall never tire of emphasizing a small, terse fact, which is unwillingly recognized by these credulous minds--namely, that a thought comes when "it" wishes, and not when "I" wish; so that it is a perversion of the facts of the case to say that the subject "I" is the condition of the predicate "think." One thinks; but that this "one" is precisely the famous old "ego," is, to put it mildly, only a supposition, an assertion, and assuredly not an "immediate certainty." After all, one has even gone too far with this "one thinks"--even the "one" contains an interpretation of the process, and does not belong to the process itself. One infers here according to the usual grammatical formula--"To think is an activity; every activity requires an agency that is active; consequently"... It was pretty much on the same lines that the older atomism sought, besides the operating "power," the paterial particle wherein it resides and out of which it operates--the atom. More rigorous minds, however, learnt at last to get along without this "earth-residuum," and perhaps some day we shall accustom ourselves, even from the logician's point of view, to get along without the little "one" (to which the worthy old "ego" has refined itself). - Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil

Don't know about that passage, but he does make the same argument about a falsely constructed agent using the German 'es blitzt', meaning 'lightning flashes' (maybe thunder, I don't recall), a point that Stirner makes 1:1, even using the same example.

Since Marx does not recognize the family nations, or morality as substantial in his philosophy (being a materialist), I don't see how they're incompatible.

Yes, Chesterton has a line about that.

"To preach egoism is to practise altruism."

It makes me think a true egoist who does not care about others would never write a book about it in the first place. This has interesting consequences: The best and the truest versions of egoism would never see the light of the day, it would never become a meme like Stirner became.

Yes, unless if the ego likes the attention brought on by preaching their egoism. But what you're saying is what I call "the secret": every rich, powerful asshole knows it. You always preach morality and equality, and always practice the opposite underhanded. It's a secret you never state forwardly. Ever.

In Stirner's philosophy everyone is an egoist though. There are only voluntary egoists and involuntary egoists. To practice altruism is a selfish act and very egoist, an involuntary egoist doesn't see this and does so in the spooky name of "good" or "morality". There is no "true egoist" because truth is a spook.

>"Wild young fellows, bumptious students, who set aside all considerations, are really Philistines, since with them, as with the latter, considerations form the substance of their conduct; only that as swaggerers they are mutinous against considerations and in negative relations to them, but as Philistines, later, they give themselves up to considerations and have positive relations to them. In both cases all their doing and thinking turns upon 'considerations,' but the Philistine is reactionary in relation to the student; he is the wild fellow come to discreet reflection, as the latter is the unreflecting Philistine. Daily experience confirms the truth of this transformation, and shows how the swaggerers turn to Philistines in turning gray."
