Is it a leftoid or a rightoid ideology?

>>82914865
Neither but its rejection of the non-material and the emphasis on personal freedom of action is more leftoid coded than rightoid

>>82914879

>Man 1: "can you stop stomping on my foot?"

Striners "logic" instantly defeated.

>>82914733 (OP)
Based. I feel the same way. Got disillusioned with philosophy early on and reading Der Einzige was like a breath of fresh air. I just wish other people would "get" it.

>>82914733 (OP)
Max Striners whole philosophy basically only appeals to milquetoast narcassists justifying their "I'm the main character" solipsism. Once the narcassist learns he doesnt get anything out of others by following Striners beliefs, he'll switch to a more mainstream belief system.

>I'm a narcissist who found a philosophy which justifies my selfishness.
Yep others just aren't as smart as (You), they just don't "get it" like (You) do
LMAO.

It's not about intelligence or lack thereof. The people that don't "get" it are for one reason or another *attached* to illusions. There's actually a lot of connections between egoism and Buddhism especially in this context. Buddhists recognise the difficulty with achieving enlightenment is that we're *attached* to suffering. In the same way, the trouble with introducing egoism to people is that they're attached to spooks and labels. They'd rather suffer fighting to assert some special label like "demisexual aromantic" than let go of the idea of labels entirely and accept that who they are is indescribable, Unique. They'd rather bemoan that their "team" isn't perfect than recognise that the "team" is an illusion, a spook being used to control them with nothing given in return. And anon, I doubt you've read Stirner, because if you had, you might consider that it pleases my ego to be kind; I desire to live in a pleasant world.
