This article is an unreadable mess
editI don't even know where to start with this. This article is so absurdly long due to its apparent commitment to throw everything but the kitchen sink in. There is no rhyme or reason to its structure, it just bounces randomly between sub-subjects, individuals and areas even remotely associated with the subject. The sources also appear to be a mix of clearly reliable sources, primary sources and random blog posts from even more random authors. I don't understand how any of this is remotely useful to anyone, whether they be unaffiliated casual readers or dyed-in-the-wool Stirner fans. Does anybody have any idea for how we could improve this article that doesn't involve just blowing it up and starting over? Grnrchst (talk) 11:22, 2 August 2023 (UTC)
- Agreed. I don't see how it's salvagable. WP:TNT it is. czar 14:58, 25 September 2023 (UTC)
Many anarcho-communists regard themselves as radical individualists
editMany anarcho-communists regard themselves as radical individualists,[1] seeing anarcho-communism as the best social system for the realization of individual freedom.[2]

To them, not merely religion, morality, family and State are spooks, but property also is no more than a spook, in whose name the individual is enslaved — and how enslaved! [...] Communism thus creates a basis for the liberty and Eigenheit of the individual. I am a Communist because I am an Individualist. Fully as heartily the Communists concur with Stirner when he puts the word take in place of demand — that leads to the dissolution of property, to expropriation. Individualism and Communism go hand in hand."; Novatore, Renzo (1924). "Towards the Creative Nothing" Archived 2011-07-28 at the Wayback Machine; Gray, Christopher (1974).

[...] The apparent contradiction between individualism and communism rests on a misunderstanding of both. [...] Subjectivity is also objective: the individual really is subjective. It is nonsense to speak of "emphatically prioritizing the social over the individual," [...]. You may as well speak of prioritizing the chicken over the egg. Anarchy is a "method of individualization." It aims to combine the greatest individual development with the greatest communal unity".

Moving this claim here for consideration as (1) it's way too heavy for the lede, and (2) is unclear whether it's original research. If this is noteworthy for the lede, this evidence should be presented in the article body and summarized in the lede. If this claim holds, it should not require any of the primary sources (or synthesis between them) and should be reduced to the reliable, secondary sources that confirm the claim. czar 14:18, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
