    Somebody with Twitter blue needs to start spamming him with Stirner memes. It would be so fucking on point for hellworld’s richest man to become obsessed with a fictional person Engels created to troll Marx.

        theres a joke theory that stirner was a fake person invented by engels to irritate marx, sort of based on the fact that no photographs or drawings exist of him besides random doodles in Engel's notes

          I will add to this the random fact that Stirn means forehead in German, and is commonly used in the idiom "die Stirn haben" which translates to "to have the nerve". So Stirner would be an apt name for a lowest common denominator strawman pseudonym.
