Ayn Rand is quickly dismissed by leftists.
What do you think of Ayn Rand /pol/
>>74916443
I really liked Anthem
Atlas Shrugged was pretty good too other than the speech that went on forever, I especially liked when Fransisco and Hank and that Norwegian pirate all put on matching windbreakers and guns and busted into the science complex to save John Galt from the giant laser

>spend your whole life praising capitalism and the free market
>lose at your own game and die penniless and on welfare
I sure do wonder!

transfag with a pen
fucking degenerate bootlicker

A misunderstood hero.
A modern day Jesus, but better.
>>74916443
Interesting points but not implementable
>>74916443
Honestly, I read Atlas Shrugged and it's just a shitty book. Novels are gay anyways
I was into fiction more as a kid now I'm just annoyed by it
I'll give her credit for not using too much flowery gay language in her writing, but the dialogue and characters are so bad in that book it's pretty obvious she's autistic or has never actually had an interpersonal relationship
>>74916443
>shit on government programs, her income was funds from government programs
>hated commies but loved a serial killer
just another whacky bitch who had an audience.
her books were shit and that type of unfettered capitalism would just be another boot to lick.
shouldve been raped and dumped in a gulag tbqhfam

Ugly feminist Soviet sleeper agent jewish dyke who was writing fanfiction.
What the hell does she have to do with philosophy?
She's a woman.
>>74916597
ANTI-SEMITE!

Cult leader who cucked her husband.
>>74916443
having read The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged, I dig the ideas of free enterprise and objectivism, but goddamn those books were too fucking long lmao pham
>>74916597
Well you have to understand where she was coming from. She lived in Soviet Russia for most of her life IIRC, so I think seeing the glory of the American life, and by extension capitalism, would probably influence her economic opinions. This is actually demonstrated a lot throughout We The Living.
working as a team > muh john galt fantasy
anyone with actual life experience has seen that

Fucking philistine

>>74916970
>>shit on government programs, her income was funds from government programs
anyone who uses this against her never read Atlas Shrugged
>>74916970
>capitalists are bootlickers
>not socialists or communists, who literally rely on someone else to survive
where did this meme come from, and why does no one address it on /pol/?

A survivor of communism and therefore the perfect advocate for capitalism. It's evident in the way (((they))) shill against her writings.
>>74916443
I quite enjoyed Anthem and The Fountainhead. Atlas Shrugged was good but goddamn long and dry.
>>74916443
I frequently dismiss her in a hasty manner.
>>74916443
Ayn rand is quickly dismissed.
I've never heard a compelling argument against objectivism, though.
>>74917585
Nobody denies individual specialization and posterior teamwork can be beneficial to all parties involved.
But there is a difference between collectivism and free association, which can exist within individualism. The first uses coercion, the later doesn't.
I quickly dismiss her as well.
>>74917585
Why does everyone think Galt's Gulch is some great fuck-the-world-deuces-faggots fantasy?
Everyone wanted to, and did, live in the normal world until the government went full communist and started seizing shit (the Metal patent, etc). It's a metaphor for brain drain.
>>74919248
And what did they do in the Gulch? All work together happily, defend themselves (camo), and try to be as unobtrusive as possible.
>>74916597
Interesting
How did Hitlers whole little plan pan out?
>>74919341
The country collapsed at the end, the last page talks about the various ventures the heros plan in new York, Chicago etc.

>ayn rand
>bootlicker
Only part I didn't like was how dagny basically just fucked who ever was the most alpha.
Relationships need commitment, how the fuck can you be happy in a relationship when fucking Chad Galt can invent a fucking new motor and steal your hard earned bitch.
Especially because there are very little females in the gulch, basically condemning rearden to fucking biological failure, but I guess she shouldn't give a fuck.
Obviously rand wrote herself in for dagny and probably wanted to get railed on by as many successful guys as she could, but she was ugly as fuck so she was lonely.
>>74916443
She had autism. Atlas shrugged was about trains and all the characters had zero personality, they were all the same
>>74916597
>lose at your own game and die penniless and on welfare
lets just ignore the whole forced to pay into it
I remember I read the fountainhead during my fedora phase in highschool

trading government boots for some other form of elite.
makes sense to me, kiddo.
>>74917914
read it, actually. it was entertaining but the philosophy behind it is bullshit propaganda
>>74918179
entirely free market capitalists are bootlickers. again.. trading the boot.

she is an absolute genius. Anyone who blindly dismisses her has obviously never read anything by her.
Also, for you guys who like Ayn Rand and fantasy fiction, read the Sword of Truth series by Terry Goodkind. Really good stuff, except for pillars of creation and the last one, forget the name.

She was spot on about the decline of the US.
>>74921625
If you combine all of those anarchist flags, you get the maritime symbol for "I need a tug".
Which makes sense. If ever there was a group of self-important people who really needed a tug, it's the neo-anarchist.
I like her
>>74921490
Difference is called CHOICE you retards. With government, you have no choice but to pay their taxes and take whatever shitty police/fire services/shitty public education they give you.
When someone with a fucking crown walks up to you and offers you protective services, you have the freedom to decline and hire someone else.

>I've never heard a compelling argument against objectivism, though.
That's because there are no rational arguments against objectivism. People who try to argue against it no nothing of the philosophy.
>>74918710
>I've never heard a compelling argument against objectivism, though
It neglects half the human condition.

What shit
>>74916443
Would have taken her more seriously had she not sold out and went on the dole.
