here come the haters.... the leftists, the socialists, with their lowbrow ad hominen attacks. The free market has created every value ever known, that they use and enjoy, yet they vilify the creator and those, like the noble Ms Rand, who defend them philosophically.

fuck trump and that you would put her in the same breath as him.

here comes the muh roads argument.
no one is saying we shouldn't pay taxes to cover common good. we are saying don't vilify the creators and the defenders of the creators like Ms. Rand. And don't call her a welfare queen, she was definitely not that. She worked her whole life and was a commercial success. She didn't live off the backs of the masses, she paid into and contributed to the system, yes, she got some medical benefits in the end, so what?

I know this is a troll post, but she's also the only philosopher of the 20th century who used novels as a means to argue her worldview. This is because her philosophy doesn't work in the real world and requires a fantasy setting to make it conceivable.

You have to be mentally impaired or a child to believe any of Ann rand's dogshit

I can respect libertarians even though I don't agree with them, but she is just too stupid, misguided and ignorant to give the benefit of the doubt to

I really doubt that at any point she had mental lucidity, she probably went crazy a kid after the trauma of leaving Russia her rambling writing reads just like my Alzheimic grandmother letters

The left attack Rand rabidly to distract people from looking at Karl Marx's clay feet because he was another hypocrite like Rand and thus their whole ideology is flawed.

Marx actually matters in the world of philosophy and political science. Rand however is on-par with LRH and other irrelevant cultists.

Stirner (the mememaster himself), of all people, blew Marx out of the water. Marx subsequently smeared Stirner's name and philosophy with the most imbecilic and childish of arguments.

What does that tell you about welfare NEET Marx?

You are retarded if you think Marx isn't relevant in the field of philosophy and political science. He's required reading.

stop mixing your own dislike with the fact that he influenced the world in a very significant manner unlike the irrelevant shits like Rand who is nothing more than a failed LRH.

you pay into medicaid retard. It was literally her own money being given back to her by the government.

Go jerk off to some John Oliver clips faggot
>>
>>71285509
it doesn't matter if she supported things like medicade or not. her money was taken for it. why not get it back?
>>
>>71281873
Because shitting on her work is a meme liberals love
>>
>>71285509
Well, even though she wasn't a libertarian, libertarian ethics see government money as money that has no owner. Meaning you can take it and use it at your leisure.
>>

I think that he meant *exclusively* use novels.

>>71282754

Atlas Shrugged really is just a boring story to get through. Its long as fuck to basically tell a very simple story. The guy has a super special steel, the government demands to know his secrets, he refuses to tell them. Iron Man 2 did the same story, but better

Rand was a leech herself, but calling her that seems to be taboo for some retarded reason.

Yeah, there's totally no argument against it, all of those minor philosophies like utilitarianism, existentialism, and humanism are just silly because objectivism asserts that itself is true!
