Anarcho-Nihilism: Difference between revisions

Modern Anarcho-Nihilism is influenced by [[File:Anego.png]] [[Anarcho-Egoism|Stirner's Egoism]] and Russian Nihilism. From Egoism it takes philosophical negation of social institutions and religion, from Russian Nihilism the inclination for active social disruption. Stirner opposed the notion of revolution which is seen as centralized and re-enslaving. Instead Stirner proposes an insurrection, that is, a spontaneous and decentralized revolt. In his book Stirner specifically notes that he means not a literal insurrection, but rather spitirual; however, his call for insurrection can be understood [[File:Insarch.png]] [[Insurrectionary Anarchism|quite literally]] as exemplified by Anarcho-Nihilists.

Another major influence for Anarcho-Nihilism is [[File:Illeg.png]] [[Illegalism|Anarcho-Illegalism]], of which Anarcho-Nihilism is a variant. «Orthodox» Egoists, including Stirner himself, tend to be reasonably law-abiding and careful. However, Anarcho-Illegalists reject all restrictions altogether, both moral and legal, what results in them committing mercenary crimes. Anarcho-Nihilists are very similar in this respect, however, many illegalists are still Egoists who wish an establishment of the egoist society, while Nihilists are radical enough to put even Egoism under question, recognizing its [[File:Egosoc.png]] restrictive potential. Even egoist society isn't entirely free if egoism becomes a prescription, an institution. This is why Anarcho-Nihilism rejects all social institutions whatever they are.
