In this video, we dive into the philosophical worlds of Max Stirner and Friedrich Nietzsche, two towering figures of radical individualism. Although often compared for their rejection of traditional morality and authority, Stirner’s Egoism and Nietzsche’s concept of the Übermensch take very different approaches to selfhood, freedom, and power. Join me as we explore the fundamental differences between these two thinkers, drawing on scholarly analysis to examine their ideas on autonomy, rebellion, and the creation of new values. Are you content with living for yourself, or do you seek to master the world? Watch the full video and decide which philosophy resonates with you.
