He looks so old. The real Stirner died at 50 of a bug bite

That was me, kind of. I was a hardcore libertarian in my teens, largely but not entirely influenced by Ayn Rand. I was interested in Stirner because I knew he was an egoist like Rand, and on reading him, I came to realize that I was looking at things from the wrong direction.

He was right about spooks and invidualism, not so much about the ego imo

>just like you can't know that,you can't know that actually in 20 years you will be the happiest you have ever been and that will last until your last breath.
life is just gambling, then?

We are not objects within this universe that either exist or don't. We are processes by which nature and society become conscious of and act on themselves. Individual existence is an illusion we are lured into by capitalism.

Why do anything? Because i want to.

You can't let the demons have free reign

>Individual existence is an illusion we are lured into by capitalism.
can you explain how capitalism leads to the perception that i am inside my own body and i do not have access to another person's subjective experiences?

Sure but that wouldn’t fit in the lyrics of My Sweet Lord

I think either Tokyo Ghoul or Mob Psycho made this point that having a phone makes you effectively a cyborg

>AI-generated cope

>>6322
scifi neural implants are such a shitty and invasive alternative to just using your fucking phone tbqh

>>6326
then tell me: how do you cope?

>>3565
I think it's newfags mostly. I still highly respect McQuinn and Landstreicher. BTW, Landstreicher also wrote this to deal with these kinds of guys: https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/apio-ludd-burn-all-bibles

ACCELERATION GANG

This is how I imaging the posters on /dead/.

That is right, just like bureaucracy
"The bureaucracy is a circle from which no one can escape. Its hierarchy is a hierarchy of knowledge."
And
"Technology discloses man's mode of dealing with Nature, the process of production by which he sustains his life, and thereby also lays bare the mode of formation of his social relations, and of the mental conceptions that flow from them."

Ok, here is my take on Ted K. :
His ideology and his actions are just his personal way to cope with existence. You read it in his manifesto, he dedicated an entire section to "surrogate activities". In his view, these activities are fake and therefore bad. But since there is no truth and no meaning in existence anyway, there can't be fake activities. ANY KIND of activity is a surrogate activity. So no matter what you do, it doesn't matter in the end. You will die and the universe will also die someday. He did the same thing we all do: He created his ideology purely out of psychological needs in order to cope with existence! Nihilism says: There is no goal. Many people don't want to accept this and so they just create their own goals/meaning. For some people it is "god", for others "socialism", "community" etc. and for Ted K, he created his primitivist ideology. Or in other words:
Pomni: So, our entire existence here is just…LARPing?
Nietzsche (chad face): Yes.

based on what?

>>5245
Ted wasn't an anprim. We was only against Industrial Society. Anprims are against both Industrial and Agricultural society.

>>5466
Based on Deez nuts

I got it from here, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Child_abductions_in_the_Russo-Ukrainian_war#
I was going off Wikipedia which is a resource I trust but I do take it with a pinch of salt. My stance of the Russian invasion of Ukraine is that I acknowledge that it’s the US’s fault because it kept trying to encircle Russia even after the Soviet Union fell and that it’s annoying how libbed-up Ukraine is but it’s still not justified to invade it. I don’t know how many children Russia abducted or if those apps were even real but I still believe that there is some truth to them occurring.

What China actually is is incredibly debatable.

Sure, they're "ideologically" communist, but ideology doesn't really matter. Material conditions are what ultimately drive action. And materially, I would argue that China is best described as fascist. In fact, they are actually probably the closest we've ever come to fascism as described by ᴉuᴉlossnW. Instead of eliminating the class antagonisms of Capitalism China has instead sublimated them by adding an additional layer of control on top. The bourgeois may be beholden to the party bureaucracy, but the oppression of the proletariat by the bourgeois nonetheless still exists.

A common objection to this claim is that the bureaucracy of the CPC speaks for the proletariat, but in practice, it really doesn't. The Chinese system is ultimately designed to give high-ranking party members the most control, leading to a system where, because of matrial self-interest, the party makes decisions that favor itself rather than the proletariat it supposedly serves.

This isn't to say that China's system is inherently inferior to Western liberal democracy or anything. But it definitely isn't communism, and if it is, then "communism" as a term is worthless.

>>6301
Nah, fascists are wholly incompetent.

i say this with no joy: billionaires won. climate change won. imperialism won. colonialism won. capitalism won. racism won. reactionaries won. religion won. revisionism won. fascism won. psychopaths won. sociopaths won. it's really just a matter of deciding how to cope with their victory as they inevitably destroy the only home we have: Earth. If anyone achieves communism, it will be outside this cursed solar system.

Tom, you really have "just blew in from reddit" energy in your posts.

This is fucking retarded. Living systems spend energy to counteract entropy. Your cellular machinery are ""negentropist"" by using ATP to make low entropy state molecules to preserve your life.

That’s why I plan on giving myself AIDS

>In the end, there are only two sides: (ideology) and (ideology)
hmmmmmmm nah

Sheogorath and Jyggalag are one.

… That night Felipe dreamt of Europe. He saw himself in all the anarchist demonstrations that were happening in the old continent. He saw himself imprisoned by the reactionaries beside his great teacher Biófilo Panclasta, the anarchist. The next day, at night, they resumed their dialogue.

“Teacher, tell me how you managed to get out of jail so many times?”

“Well, son, there were many influences. The first thing is that in every country I was in, I belonged to every anarchist movement that there was; for example, I already told you that in Italy I belonged to the anarcho-syndicalist party; in Spain, I was an active member of the FAI; I was also a personal friend of Lenin and Stalin, but what aided me the most was the eternal spirit of Marx, which I would invoke in the moments of greatest danger.”

“The spirit of Marx?”

“Yes, Felipe. The spirit does not ever abandon you; for us, it is something like what the Holy Spirit is for that little priest over there.”
