Anti-Humanism

Anti-Humanism a philispohical set that opposes the Humanist beliefs. It was a branch of theory that is critical of traditional humanism and traditional ideas about the human condition, vitality and agency. This implies Humanism won't work because it isn't rooted in reality. As a philosophy, Anti-Humanism is simply an opposition to humanism as a philosophy (not actual humans).

Anti-Humanits such as Freud and Heidegger, for example, believe humanism takes the ideas of "metaphysics" or "rationality " and perverts them, which discredits those concepts of philosophy. Others such as Althusser, see Humanism as a false concept that is taken advantage by  upper class  to justify their oppression by claiming property rights are human rights.

History
Anti-Humanism is accredited in a large part to Max Stirner and  Friedrich Nietzsche, in "The Ego And It's Own" (Stirner), and "Genealogy Of Morals" (Nietzsche). Many Anti-Humanists also believe that mature Marx was not a "humanist", as he believed that "humanism" was an unreal abstraction that masks conflicts between antagonistic classes; since human rights are abstract, the justice and equality they protect are also abstract, permitting extreme inequalities in reality.

Personality and Behaviour
Misanthropic, likes reading Heldigger and complains about idealism. Hangs out with Primalism and Post-Humanism. Very cynical.
