Which of these gents does /lit/ prefer?
Stirner is the golden memeboy, but his actual writing is the rambling of an edgy teenager
Gödel is the faultless logician, but his robotness and schizophrenia make him a little hard to grasp as a person
Both noted and wrote on big holes society skipped in thinking, making contracts null or just exposing them for being arrogantly and faultly self-righteous

>Gödel
Him, duh.
He was a mathematician, too, so he's actually smart.

Hardly. He's succinct for a philosopher, poetic, and doesn't talk down to his audience. There are only minor hints of edginess in the first quarter of the book.

Okay, that's a good image and all, but you don't want to mess with me.
So, stop.

Goedel is like a double Wittgenstein. He had to disregard the Vienna circle's idiocy and treated them much like Wittgenstein treated Russel and his lot, but then also had to disregard Wittgenstein telling him he was wasting his time. Crazy shit.
What's Gödel's claim to fame?
>>8788367
Godel, because he proved that it's impossible to prove anything. Truly mind-expanding stuff.

No he didn't.

Stirner is the more meme-worthy philosopher obviously.
But Gödel was probably more correct within his own context.
