The Passion of Ayn Rand

[Tatjana86]

The music is disgusting. If I were to judge the value of Ayn Rands thinking by the musical taste of her youtubeing devotees, I*d guess it must be a bit retarded.

lol. creepy bitch

[shelbeh94]

Here is a question for some of you. Did you miss the day in school when they talked about manners? how about having respect for your elders? or for the dead? if you disagree with her ideas fine, say that and be done. your personal views do not become right by calling this lady names or by down playing her achievments.

[wikiporno]

The bitch is dead! YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!

[badgerattoadhall]

@wikiporno so sad i wish she could write still

[wikiporno]

@badgerattoadhall so said that she had to write to begin with. Never mind her whole "fuck the poor worship the rich" philosophy, even ignoring that her writting was aweful, nobody in any of her books act like human beings, and that's not even getting into the 200 some page rant john galt gets into at the end of atlas shrugged. Dear god. Not only was she a fucking nazi, but she was a talentless bitter bitch of one.

[badgerattoadhall]

@wikiporno I’ll give you one thing in her non-fiction the craft of her writing was a bit poor, but the ideas were great & her non-fiction awesome. She was a Nazi? Really I really can’t figure out how objectivists can be Nazis, were the state has three roles, protect life, protect property, enforce contracts. People in her books do act like human beings & if you knew some truly poor in the US…nuff said.

[wikiporno]

@badgerattoadhall "What are your masses but millions of dull, shriveled, stagnant souls that have no thoughts of their own, no dreams of their own, no will of their own, who eat and sleep and chew helplessly the words others put into their brains? And for those you would sacrifice the few who know life, who are life? I loathe your ideals because I know no worse injustice than the giving of the undeserved." That is one of the most fascist things ever said by anyone anywhere ever.

[badgerattoadhall]

@wikiporno Um no that is not fascist (one of the most improperly used words ever) it was at worst simple classism. She did not like the idea of great men being sacrificed for the idle non ambitious poor

The singer sounds a bit like John Wetton of King Crimson.

[101candyman101]

@stegokitty It is John Wetton from King Crimson. He was with UK for three (3) albums--UK, Danger Money and UK Live.

[Cidriullo]

@101candyman101 He was also with Uriah Heap for a bit. Asia too, but that was very forgettable.

[Cidriullo]

@stegokitty does sound like Wetton. He was also in Uriah Heap.

[Cidriullo]

@Cidriullo whoops, didn't realize it was UK. I saw them open for someone many years ago, maybe Jethro Tull or something like that. They were good. 

[john48martin]

that's an oxymoron. passion and ayn rand

[xburningheavensx]

No it's not. It is only an inflamed person that goes so categorically against the contemporary grain. She may have held the majority in contempt, but she did so passionately. She regarded individuality as inviolable, passion is therefore a prerequisite.

[Imperativism]

@xburningheavensx Ayn Rand's selection of rare and exceptional individuals as the basis for her conceptual definition of "man" is itself the logical fallacy of incomplete evidence (cherry picking). According to the law of identity, if A is A, then A is not B. Yet in Objectivism this is exactly what she asserts when taking the rare and exceptional individual as her standard and norm. (Note standard is the opposite of rare, as is exceptional the opposite of norm.) The contradiction is unescapable.
