Is this guy actually worth reading or is he just a meme?
Or is he worth reading because he's a meme?

If you are a teenager who superficially embraces nihilism then you might like him. You might really enjoy saying things like "nice spook" and so on while not adding anything of value to conversations.

If you don't fit this criteria, don't waste your time, user.

tbqh, this image is closer to reality when it comes to Stirnerfags

Don't, he's a meme and used as a cop out in lieu of any actual use of reason

Stirner is a spook, The Ego In His Own isn't what you want it to be (a license to do whatever you what) but in fact a pompous essay on why Christians are so great and everyone else is a stupid collectivist.

...

Why?

>Needs reason
Nice spook

There's your reason. This is the type of discourse Stirner allows for.

So?

Go ahead and read him then, you don't need our permission, user.

Wym? Why is Stirner being counter productive to discourse or conversations bad?

Nobody in this thread has actually read Stirner

Reading is a spook

>Reading
We're getting too spooky

Don't read Stirner, read the Stoics instead.

This. Philosophy starts and ends with the Greeks. Everything else is a waste of time and tries to answer existential questions that only raise more existential questions that can only be truly be solved by the Greeks.

nerd ass faggets

>but in fact a pompous essay on why Christians are so great and everyone else is a stupid collectivist
elaborate

Read it yourself.

>not throwing away the ladder after you've ascended

he's actually kind of good. anyways most people on internet forums get him wrong, just for the memes lol.

Anyways, his work is therapeutic, and aims at a change of perspective rather than system-building. It's not "lol just do what you want lol nice spooks nerd."

Combine Stirner with Jung and you're onto something

why stirner with jung?fol

Double the euphoria

Spooked

Not spooked
