Why is the ego not a spook?
Who's asking?

If you actually read Stirner instead of memeing, you'd know.

Shouldn't you bother learning what a spook is before wondering whether something is a spook or not?

Cause its self dissolving, it still exists even without having an idea about it or an idea after it. The Ego can only be a spook in the negative sense of being considerd an un-man/heretic opposesed to the positive subject of the fixed idea. (Man is the postive subject of Humanism while the Unman is the negative subject of Humanism) And when you consider the ego to be a something seperate to sought after, a future something/idea that you need to complete to be the self.

It's the biggest of spooks obviously.
It changes constantly, it's only an idea, what doesn't change as much is our intelligence, but even that is bound to change with old age (usually it degenerates) and eventually death.
But it is a spook. The accumulated sensory perception of humans isn't an ego, it's just accumulated sensory perception.
Anyone who has meditated for any length of time knows that the ego isn't there and can wither away.

Also note the name of ''Creative Nothing'' The Ego is a nothing that creates (The Ego has dissolved all and even itself, thus you get the assosiation with Nihilism and Egoism as Egoism is Active Nihilism), it creates creatures and idea's without an idealogical basis/absolute idea (Centre of the fixed idea like for example God in Christianity).
