You are trying to say the same thing as Buddhists, that there is no self. I dont think this contradicts stirners egoism, the whole purpose of his work is to dissolve religious and political ideas that are used to scare and confuse people.

And I dont think wolfie is referring to "atomized" individuals as you claim, hes just saying that communism robs people of their agency.

Now I think your point, that we as individuals aren't so in control as western capitalism wants to believe, is fully valid. I think children have no free will whatsoever, and as we grow older we gain a little bit but we still don't have very much.

Stirner didn't really speak much of individuals in his main work, he spoke mostly of "his own" and "ownness"
