Refute me

I've been noticing a lot of anti-Stirner posting on Veeky Forums lately. I wonder why. If you actually read Stirner it's obvious he's not noticeably different in qualities from most other good philosophers.
There's nothing in that post to pay attention to. It's, as it says, simply reducing Stirnerism to the absurd "everything is nothing" and thenn ranting for a bit.

you sound like youve never read him. is that the case m8?

You don't have to read Stirner to know he's a vapid hack for Reddit memelords.

kys faggot

nice ad hominem

Is this really all you autists can respond with?

Yes.

Reading it right now actually, admittedly only made it half-way through so far.

>simply reducing Stirnerism to the absurd "everything is nothing"

Stirner's own introduction is literally titled "All Things Are Nothing To Me" you fag. And Stirnerism by its very nature is reductionist as I already explained in my post.

>Stirner's own introduction is literally titled "All Things Are Nothing To Me"
No it isn't. This is the whole point; he says one thing and means many things in combination. He does this through puns. Unfortunately, you are reading a shit translation (an inadequate one, at least), and this is not conveyed.

"All things are nothing to me" is the same as "I have set my cause to nothing". They do mention this in the translation, even if they don't translate it.

>as I already explained in my post.
You didn't explain shit my dude.

I downloaded a version in my native language and I'm happy to see that the translation of the introduction is something on the lines of «my cause is the cause of nothing». It also has a footnote mentioning it comes from Goethe and translates it literally to «I've founded my cause on nothing»

Honestly dude, why even bother?

I entertained Stirner back when I read him because imo he's extremely relevant to the modern condition, but there's no point arguing with people who stopped at Stirner. There's no intelligent discussion to be had with Stirnerites, so it's best not to subject yourself to the headache.
