Yeah I think since a! sees Daniel regularly at the reading group meetings he felt more safe challenging views. What was interesting for me was how a! noted that Daniel had been basically the only person at their reading group who had remained an egoist over time. In part because I think of the bay area anarchists to be pretty much the centre of egoist anarchism. What are they all then? Nihilists? Pure Black? plain ol' Green?

More and more though, listening to these people speak, it makes me want to try to articulate my politics for myself. I feel like I wouldn't be able to have the kind of flowing, readily-had conversations that these people do. It's in part because I have a different focus and don't really like to define myself in terms of preexisting anarchisms (and especially those from the US and Europe).

Annoyingly, sharing a detailed politics here would amount to doxxing myself, since my politics is entirely situated.

Separately, this actually confused my sense of what Egoism is - it seemed to present to me a pretty weak form of what I thought it might be (since I've never read Stirner).

I don't really get what 'individualism' means, to egoists.
