          Wikipedia could probably do better than me: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Max_Stirner

          Basically he was a 19th century philosopher who was into a sort of individualist anarchist tract. His memory is preserved mostly by Engels's caricatures and a lengthy criticism in The German Ideology.

          Later, Marx and Engels wrote a major criticism of Stirner's work. The number of pages Marx and Engels devote to attacking Stirner in the unexpurgated text of The German Ideology exceeds the total of Stirner's written works.

          He is also associated with the concept of "spooks," which I find kind of cool - but where he goes from there is, eh.

          Stirner proposes that most commonly accepted social institutions—including the notion of state, property as a right, natural rights in general and the very notion of society—were mere illusions, "spooks" or ghosts in the mind.

          He basically is, and always has been a meme.

            that's interesting, seems like the notion of societal constructs as spooks would put him near the situationists. do you think that would be accurate?

            also, what do people think about situationist praxis in these days?

            before covid, I was at a bar with my then-gf and my best friend, and the three of us put on this impromptu, unsolicited mime performance on a stage, that was us enacting the taming of a lion while stacking more and more stage furniture up on itself. when we got to an apparently critical mass of stacked tables, we were shooed away by the bouncer. in the meantime though, we were able to pull this one drunk lady up on stage and get her to mime with us. she did not see her night going that way, before it happened.
