Very convoluted, written in dream-like sequences. Probably one of the most original books I've ever read. Very stimulating. Like a mix of Burroughs and Borges. I like it a lot.

While /paleo/ has become a meme for annoying young women, I think it's the way to go. Can there be a more optimal state than aligning yourself with the conditions your body is evolved for?

Gender roles have been fucked up for the last 50 years, but the red pill community is realizing the yin/yang of men and women and they're better off for it. The same can be said about the paleos and their practices.

This anon gets it. The point was that he is after all just a flawed human, one who has been reduced to a shell by the jungle.

Silverblatt > Charlie Rose


He should have the tv show desu

Charlie Rose doesn't even read the books.

It's ok. Some of the ideas are kind of hamfisted imo and I have a feeling that a lot of people on this board will think it's a "white guilt" book or something like that. Other than that it's fine, worth giving some of your time to read and comprehend. At least that's what I thought

>>9185424
SoS is the /lit/ approved novel but nobody really talks about it because she's a black woman so Morrison threads invariably turn to shit

>>9185451
The book is hardly "white guilt" and I say that as a conservative.
I didn't love it, but it was interesting nonetheless. It also helps to know the historical background around the characters.

Keep reading, Stirner even acknowledges that he's probably not making any sense at the end of the chapter I assume you're on

No, you do not need to read Hegel, the wiki if you're curious, just finish reading it. Most likely reading the shitty translation I did. It's easy stuff, just terribly detailed.

Do read his shorter pieces about education and answering his critics

If I'd say "read Hegel first", you'd end up with a much bigger pre-reading list. So there's nothing you can do about that.

When Stirner speaks of the mans life split in childhood, adulthood, old age etc., that's basically a Hegel parody, who's famous for rethinking history and splitting it into eras.

When he goes on talking about Christianity, it's good to know that in the bar he and Marx, Feuerbach, Engels and so on where hanging out (the Young Hegelians), being able to legally criticize such things was a hot topic and Feuerbach was the guy who even wrote a book on how Jesus probably didn't even exist.
When you get to the part about Communism and Socialism, it's good to crosscheck the release date of the book with what had NOT YET happened in Europe.

Like you do know that for example the old German anthem had the famous line "Deutschland, Deutschland über Alles!!" in it ("Germany, Germany above all!!"). People today link that to Nazi Germany and how the were supremicists, but really it's from a time where central Europe was split into hundreds of largely independent Länder and in <Germany> the idea was to bring those together under one rule. "Germany above all" foremost also means "you, sub-states, consider yourself one now, not split into neighboring regions".

There's a lot of shit going on when Stirner writes his book and he's reacting (and essentially dismissing) just most major ideas being cooked up, while they are hot.

Your list is so unbelievably default and boring I doubt you've read any of those and wouldn't be surprised if you pieced it off together from /lit/ shitposting. I also wouldn't be surprised if this was pasta I didn't know about.

>>9184565
Ask a bindery to compile it all in a single tome. That way it still counts as one.

Lmaoing @ ur life, nigger.

The time my mom found my diary desu

she made me go to therapy for the next few years

I sent my first novel out to a few people who expressed interest and actually managed to make a few of them cry.

They claimed it was because of my introspective narrative and the more tragic scenes, but really it's because my writing was/is garbage.
