Someone builds a house - "THAT'S OPPRESSIVE!" They trade that house for a car - "THAT'S OPPRESSIVE!" None of it voluntary, right? It's all force, right?
Egoism, as Stirner uses it, is not opposed to love nor to thought; it is no enemy of the sweet life of love, nor of devotion and sacrifice; it is no enemy of intimate warmth, but it is also no enemy of critique, nor of socialism, nor, in short, of any actual interest.

Capitalism requires respect for private property, and I have no respect. You expect a union of egoists will have a boss? LOL no thanks A union of egoists naturally operates socialistically.
