Is there a philosopher who hated religion as much as Stirner? He rants about it or the God-fearing in every chapter. I'm not even sure what more there is to learn from him, but his rants are entertaining.
>Wheels in the Head
"Man, your head is haunted; you have wheels in your head! You imagine great things, and depict to yourself a whole world of gods that has an existence for you, a spirit-realm to which you suppose yourself to be called, an ideal that beckons to you. You have a fixed idea!
Do not think that I am jesting or speaking figuratively when I regard those persons who cling to the Higher, and (because the vast majority belongs under this head) almost the whole world of men, as veritable fools, fools in a madhouse."

Der Einzige is little more than plain old dull nominalism for the intellectually bankrupt adolescent. If you haven´t read the chap, consider yourself lucky, if you have, take consolation in the fact that you'll grow out if it.

You fucked up by posting an NSFW pic for a SFW board, don't do that shit.

As for The Ego and Its Own, I liked it and thought it made some good points, but its lack of self-examination is where it falls short.

Overall though you really can't fault it unless you believe in a god, which itself is tantamount to not having a discussion because divine law is portrayed as infallible, perfect and eternal.

Actually yeah, come to think of it has anyone produced a decent critique of Stirner? I've seen bits and pieces but they always resolve into personal preferences rather than logically reasoned alternatives.

One man was so autistic that he wrote a critique of The Ego and His Own which was longer than the source material

rant filled with ad-hominem != critique

Spoogs

Literally nothing wrong with wankery
Only plebs dislike intellectual exertions to show off.
