That passage appears to be pretty weak out of context. My concern isn't the concern of e.g. humanity or God, it is only my own concern... OK, but what does this achieve? Where does it lead to? Socrates would have replied: "tell me boy, if your concern is only your own, what does it mean for a concern to be your own or to not be your own? Furthermore, how can you determined which concern is your own and which not?"

Stirner's idea of ownership is based purely on use
Rand's is Kantian
Stirner doesn't believe in rights
Rand's Objectivism pivots on them
Stirner doesn't object to stealing or murder
Rand has a strict morality that says it is okay to watch as someone rapes a child, but you cross the line the moment you decide not to return their pen

lol no. Stirner was the first (and possibly only) person to realize that human thought chains are consious in the same way we are. Ayn Rand was just a gimme dat.

Also, Stirner realized that all humans are either consciously egotistic or volantarily and that all motivation is intrinsic. Ayn Rand thought the only rational way to live is by being greedy and hording material possessions and that is what everyone else wants. She completely ignores the fact many people don't even give a shit about the economy and pursue mental, emotional or physical strengths instead of purely material goals.

Basically, she was just a Jew obsessed with the material. Which is exactly what Stirner said the Jews only have the capacity to do.

Twelve year olds don't "think" anyhting about the world yet. They try to get to the back of it and figure it out, and are concerned purely with the natural. They fear the parent's rod but don't realize the ideals behind it. That's when they turn into mongoloids and start rebelling.

And Rand, by the way, makes this something heroic by having corporate owners sabotage and blow up their businesses when the government interferes too much, in order to ensure the workers don't take them over after the owners leave and go Galt.

No she said specifically that money is only a means to "happiness",
and that just having money is irrelevant.
The pursuit and the money are the two variables required.
The one can not live with out the other.

Of course I did. I seperate Stirner's "spooks" from Hegels because Stirner's are physical. From what I could glean, "spooks" are the next stage up in evolution from humans. Humans are formed from cells. The activity of the cells gives rise to human consiousness, the creative nothing. Human thoughts and actions give rise to fixed ideas, which are also creative is also a creative nothing. A christian crusade were nothing more than the Christian God striking Allah with its hand.

>Humans are formed from cells. The activity of the cells gives rise to human consiousness, the creative nothing.
I'm pretty sure Stirner would tell you that this idea of cell activity (being some ultimate reality and a foundation for creative nothing) is just another metaphysical spook. It is creative nothing that came up with the idea of activity of the cells and not the other way around. It is called "creative nothing" for a reason.

>> No.6595293

I agree. From your ego's point of view. And from the "spooks" point of view, it created you, as you created the cell, as the cell created its membranes.

They're irreconcilably different. To put it extremely simply:

Ayn Rand: The rules as they are suck, we should change them to these different rules that I like, because they will benefit the type of people I like.

Stirner: The rules are silly nonsense lads. That said, do as you please.

They do in a way, but when you tell them about fake boundaries they may do so in a different way. A child does as it pleases differently if it no longer believes there's a spook in its closet, for example.
