This is all humour of course, but whether you like Rand (as I do, to an extent) or if you hate her, it's cleverly correct to an extent.
Kudos to Cracked's article on Rand.
An excerpt from the article:
The works of Ayn Rand include Atlas Shrugged, a popular novel on the evils of government regulations; The Fountainhead, the story of rebellious architect Howard Roark struggling to maintain his integrity; and Anthem, which I didn't read because you only need the first two to be trendy.
The Fountainhead was a breathtaking, cliche-defying, rape-justifying read. Roark, its hero, chooses to fight in obscurity rather than sell out on his creative vision of how buildings ought to be designed. Also, he blows up a building because he's a genius and he can do whatever he wants. Sure, at 700 pages it was a little long, but at least it wasn't 700 pages describing cancer metastasis and tort law, like "A Civil Action."
ayn rand: raving sociopath whose people use to cover personal flaws
You have a bumper sticker reply to every school of thought you don't like. It's easy to criticize the passions of other people.
its ayn rand. its not a legitimate school of thought. its a cheap, moralistic rip-off of nietzsche.
Nathan, you seem pretty good at arguing over the internet, do you have a legitimate contention to make backed by evidence by chance? I'm no objectivist (thank god, or else I'd be off chanting for the invasion of Iran), but your arguments seem pretty void of evidence or value at this point.
yeah. im ok with that. its the internet. im not going to waste my time arguing the validity of ayn rand.
That wasn't the point of Zak's post, buddy.
