RE: 100th anniversary of October Revolution: let's celebrate that Communism kills
Question: What is Objectivism ?
Answer: "My philosophy, in essence, is the concept of man as a heroic being, with his own happiness as the moral purpose of his life, with productive achievement as his noblest activity, and reason as his only absolute."
— Ayn Rand , Appendix to Atlas Shrugged
Please let me know your argument against the above statement which summarize the philosophy of Ayn Rand. (I'm not an objectivist but a Theravada/Zen Buddhist. Rand and I have our disagreements)
A broken clock is right twice a day! Sure, she has a few foundational premises right but not much more and that's not my opinion. It's the overall consensus of thousands of philosophers...She's an extraordinarily weak philosopher. She took social Medicaid when she was sick, too.....And the Whitehouse is full of Randians who only want to make the state more powerful and are using the state to implement their delusions! Fucking hypocrites is not too strong a statement!
