The very cutting edge of contemporary post-Stirner thought.
Listening to this audio book has felt like climbing the ah-ha-moment ladder of ladders. The perfect touch to my moral education. Adored the chapter titled, "Realism".

THANK YOU FELLOW LANDSTREICHER!

A brief but inspiring piece of insurectionary individualist anarchist thought, that, following in the tradition of egoist anarchism starting from Stirner and combining it with the critique of commodification of everyday life and its reshaping in the capitalist logic of thought of the Situationists (especially drawing from Raoul Vaneigem), calls to a liberation of ourselves from imposed schemes of life and thought, a freeing of desire and passion and reinforcing the self via a radical subjectivity.

Due to its brief and concise naturem however, some aspects such as the chapters discussing love, feminism and revolt/therapy may come off as problematic in its potential implications, simplistic and in need of more detail at best and regressive at worst.

22 pages of pure bliss that can change your life substantially or it can give words to your rebellious perception towards life.

It is a quick and must read for anyone who is trying to perceive a new way to look at the world of "imposed existence".

It is freely available, and you can read it online on The Anarchist Library.

Baseado no livro ''Willful Disobedience'' do mesmo autor, este panfleto belissimamente escrito ilustra um projeto crítico e cheio de paixão por uma vida terrena e ao nosso alcance. Contra intelectualismos rascos e contra uma vida de limitações categóricas, acompanhei esta leitura com um delicioso audiobook disponível no youtube.

Kind of described every political belief i hold close to my heart and have trouble putting into words. Radical love for one another is my motto as our saving grace. Ignoring thr other essay about child love for now lol
