What makes Stirner so meme-able?

What makes Stirner so meme-able?

He pisses off everyone

it can be applied to a wide variety of things, consists of a simple image that is highly editable and signals in-group knowledge

...

Because that drawing of him is so incredibly smug.

Because his whole philosophy is negative. He shits all over everything. And it's great. You don't need to worry about making an argument for yourself, you just need to show how unfounded everyone else's beliefs are. Also, he looks like an asshole, so people get extra triggered.

The portrait of him is like the mona lisa of the left. It makes you wonder: why is he so smug? What does he know that I don't? Is he bemused? Is he being cheeky?

the drawing was made by engels, who thought of stirner as a nasty petty-bourgeois, the smug look isn't a compliment

Reminder that Engels drew this.

Engels only drew these two pictures. The portrait in the OP is modern fan art.

His face tbh

Its the furrowed eyebrows

nobody likes their spooks busted

He pisses off Holla Forumstards, neo-nazis & any kind of person that strongly believes in spook.

His logic is infallible. It's just like when Atheists pissed the shit out of Christians. They couldn't really argue back with logic just Feelz >>>> Reals

He was supposed to be blonde but we fuckd it up.

that's a nice way to say "begging the question"

I wonder what he was really like. In our memes he's this incredibly smug asshole who just goes around pissing on people's parades and stealing their stuff, but the IRL version seems more like a mild-mannered milkman.

All those triangles, starting with the lower-left-pointing chin. The corners of the mouth help too.

a mall goth version of de sade

He was supposed to be an asshole iirc so its not too far off.

Stirner exposes whats fictional & spook believes hate that.


He was very confident in himself thats for sure. So saying he was smug is correct, he is the cool type of edgy never afraid of saying what he wanted to say or acting how he wanted to act.

your understanding of "fictional" makes science negro look like hegel

De Sade was a small fry compared to Stirner.

"Look at Stirner, look at him, the peaceful enemy of all constraint.
For the moment, he is still drinking beer,
Soon he will be drinking blood as though it were water.
When others cry savagely "down with the kings"
Stirner immediately supplements "down with the laws also."
Stirner full of dignity proclaims;
You bend your willpower and you dare to call yourselves free.
You become accustomed to slavery
Down with dogmatism, down with law"

here is max

nothing creative about that

That's Rudolf Steiner.

He was the creative nothing after all :^}

If dying destitute and alone is a negative, there goes all those Holla Forums posters

Debts are a spook.

He's literally a meme started by Engels, basically the first socialist meme of course he's still gonna be meme-able.

a more brilliant version of stirner, why sell milk when you can sell endlessly diluted milk as medicine?


i'll see you when i get there

yet he's the one who got busted

i don't care dude

Yeah like Communists.

depends on the type.

The irony

Because his book "The Ego and Its Own" reads like a shitpost while still maintaining valid points
He was a fucking literary genius

There are a few major factors that contribute to Stirner's memability which are listed as follows.

1. Holla Forums has no good memes and is unable to generate original, funny, tasteful, or informing memes.

2. Stirner and Spooks are /lit/ memes.

3. Holla Forums is only capable or parroting foreign memes and pasting heads onto pictures in an attempt to create "memes".

It's a winning combination. You've probably noticed that there is almost no OC of Stirner's clip art profile image that gets pasted onto other images. It's just the same old black and white one you see consistently. Holla Forums's lack of creativity and the simplicity of the original clip-art image (making it easier to cut-and-paste for the 9gag style meme makers) increases the memeability significantly.

Monarch-anarchist?

Holla Forums's mascot is pepe, who is an /r9k/ meme.

Nuh uh, what about that one time I did a shitty photoshop of a shitty comic?
