Cute video.

Anybody who buys Rand's line of shit deserves their own stupidity as much any religious person or truther or ufologist ever did.

@rayyf69 Hate to break it to you, but she said altruism is evil. Perhaps you are confusing altruism with helping others.
-
@CptnChan She said advancing your own welfare is a duty while advancing others welfare is not a duty, if something does not promote one's own welfare it is not a duty. She would definitely say being forced to advance the welfare of somebody, other then yourself, against your will is evil, but that's not what we are talking about,
-
She did say it was evil BTW

@twooffour Be specific i'm not sure what your speaking about. If your argument is altruism is virtuous, well it is certainly a viable method to cooperate AT SMALL SCALES, but when done on a large scale there is no rational accounting mechanism to keep record of who is consuming and who is producing so i don't see altruism as a virtue more then a vice.

Except it IS virtuous.

HILARIOUS! I died laughing. My stomach hurts. It's stupid though.

WTF.
Pretty good drawing, though.
As a fan of Rand's philosophy, I approve of this hilarious video.

While i'm not an objectivist i think your misrepresenting rand here. She did not say altruism is evil she just argued there is nothing virtuous about it.
Also Rand would not demand value (cookie) without providing value.
