If that's true then 99% of Randians completely missed the point because they refuse to take responsibility for their actions and think being a douchebag is self-actualization


Yeah at first reading atlas shrugged was bizarre since her villians in that story are clearly based on the type of people who worship her today.


You mean like how people look at Star Trek, a series that's been pushing the envelope on progressiveness and runs counter to conservative philosophies, and go "Hmm, yes, clearly the heroes are Republicans and their enemies are lieberal feminasty demoncrats."?

Or am I giving Rand *way* too much credit with this comparison?


Basically anything even remarkably popular and quotable has been used by oppressors as justification for their actions.

Though progressiveness and divirsity aren't counter to actual conservative philosophies, though perhaps they are to Republican ones.
