false dichotomy after false dichotomy. @ 5:12 "Does man acquire knowledge by a process of reason or or by sudden revelation from a supernatural power?" If you can't gain knowledge through reason, then it must be supernatural.

ayn's popularity arises from narcissistic culture. We will start when we get beyond the dominance culture, and move toward consciousness. Those who are stuck are so because they are afraid of death and don't know it, the children of a narcissistic culture, the little objects so scared they chose primal dissociation, and then fart bag blow hards like ayn taught their superiority, rather than a humble truth...we haven't even started yet. To ayn's fans, ifuck you

The way Rand is framing these questions is far to polarized. Reason is not without fault. Knowledge is acquired both on an individual and collective level.
