What is the /philosophy/ opinion on him? I like his take Buddhism and the Ride the Tiger analogy, but does he offer any feasible critique of the modern world other than just calling it degeneracy?

Is there something salvageable philosophically if his is bad or is he actually good?

From the Stirnerite he seems extremely useless.

His ideas were worthless enough for mussolini to leave him alone

You can tell because mussolini didn't consider him enough of a threat to kill

His work is basically worthless from a political standpoint if you don't buy into his wacky mystical views, as his ideas on politics are almost entirely rooted in them.

So he was insane?

Nah m8, he was more concerned with the spiritual-physical connection than politics, but what he did do in politics is hardly of any use to the modern world without a serious paradigm shift (he was a monarchist and an pro-aristocrat and glorified the divine or spiritual right to rule that old kings had).

I was hoping for something, or anything to take from his /philosophy/, but I guess I'll come up empty handed.

I might read some of his books if I get the chance, however.
