Will we ever get a good Ayn Rand movie? I fucking loved Atlas Shrugged and Objectivism is god tier ideology, but the movie of Atlas Shrugged sucked.
>>
>>70967693
There was a IRL adaptation between 1922–1991.
>>
No because the free market rejected it and also why did they have to beg for donations to make Atlas Shrugged isn't that altruism in closing Ayn Rand used welfare
>>
>>70967766
wew laddy learn to use some punctuation. the "Ayn Rand used welfare! xD" meme is the literal go-to meme for Collectivist normies, it is also a retarded meme.

she did not believe in the system, but she was forced to pay into it for her entire life, and then you're trying to say it was wrong of her to cash out?

Shame the philosophy's image is tainted by a lot of politics and misinterpretations nowadays.
>>
she should have stopped after the fountainhead
>>
I agree with a lot, if not most, of her political conclusions. But the philosophy behind it, the ethics, the epistemology, and all the rest, is complete trash. No one who has actually studied philosophy and knows how to formulate a rigorous argument would take it seriously.

It would result in things like monopolies and an incredible amount of stratification. You'd have to do things like pay every time you used roads.

"I'm willing to fuck over everyone around me for my benefit and in disregard of morality" is a shitty blueprint for a society.

HOWEVER

>>70968642
Rational self-interest leads everyone to fuck everyone over if it means they profit from it. If everyone spends their time fucking everyone over, society regresses.

Objectivism is retarded because it ignores the reality of a Capitalist economy. Innovators don't grace us with their genius and then gain wealth. They build their products on the backs of cheap labor and sell them to consumers who, by the way, are the only reason so-called geniuses succeed. The market doesn't make decisions, the democracy of consumers and consumption do. That's why you can get rich creating medical technology that genuinely benefits people just the same as you can get rich creating a website that caters to people sharing thoughts in 250-characters or less. In either case, those are not the result solely of individual genius. And without an audience, they would be nobodies. Society would get along without them, just as literature would've been fine without Ayn Rand.

Also, you're all plebs for not suggesting that pic related already was a good adaptation of Rand onscreen.
