Bringing up Stirner is one way I express my irritation.

(Stirner comment/quote here)

No, I get irritated when people talk about Morality as if it were understood that we all mean the same thing by it. Stirnerites believe in expediency not morality. It's almost impossible to discuss it with them. Expediency is "what works". I would say civil society is built on that now, but everything is just so jumbled up, it's hard to tell. Society is like geology: strata, intrusions, volcanos, rotten shit (I mean that literally)... you get the picture. Thomas Sowell has written three good books on the subject. Society grows on the fertilizer.
