Stirner's "ironic racism" was a lampoon of Hegel's Philosophy of History.

-
Hegel wrote in Philosophy of History that history developed in Negroid, Mongoloid, and Caucasoid phases, which is absurd. Stirner made a very tongue in cheek criticism by basically copying this formula but applying it in a manner which is intended to demonstrate the absurdity.
-
Stirner's anti-racism is often mistaken as racism by those with a very shallow, surface reading; by those who didn't get the joke.
