Max Stirner: The False Principle of Our Education [Part 1]

[JamesDestry1]

Max Strirner is, in short, one of the fathers of the beautiful, artistic ethic known as egoism, along with Nietzsche, and arguably Hiedeggar.

@JamesDestry1

Stirner's philosophy is anti morality/ethics. Though to say that assumes there is such thing.

To put it short, egoism =/= "ethical egoism"

[JamesDestry1]

@DerrEinzige Yes, but what I mean by "ethic" is not a code of ethic, but a philosophy of ethic, which, in stirner's case, is a philsophy that calls for the abandonment of ethic.

[DerrEinzige]

@JamesDestry1

Fair enough.

However Stirner's egoism is very different then Nietzsche's.

[JamesDestry1]

@DerrEinzige yes, but that is because Egoism is not a unified school of thought, rather it is a catagory of philosophies. The same is true for existentialism, individualism, and nihilism.
