The anarchist black slash joins Max Stirner’s philosophy of Egoism. Stirner is an early contemporary of the Young Hegelians and Karl Marx. He proposes a left-wing individualism premised on egoic self-interest. Stirnerists collectivize as a “union of egoists”, a voluntary and non-systematic association in contradistinction to the state. Stirner’s niche philosophy has seen an extremely online resurgence within the last few years.
