<<<Because it is in our self interest to support a decent and civil society.>>>

How does your philosophy of self interest differ from that of Max Stirner, "...(who wrote The Ego and Its Own (1844), a "founding text" of the philosophy of individualist anarchism. Stirner's philosophy was an "egoist" form of individualist anarchism according to which the individual does as he/she pleases, taking no notice of God, state, or moral rules, and society has no responsibility for its members. To Stirner, rights were spooks in the mind, and society does not exist but "the individuals are its reality" — he supported property as possession by might rather than right. Stirner preached self-assertion and foresaw "associations of egoists" where respect for ruthlessness drew people together.)"

If there is a difference, can you see that there are many impressionable people, many that you have debated with on other SI threads, can not or will not be able to discern.
