post yfw you read about objectivism for the first time

:|

was inculcated by a high school english teacher who was a randian cultist. brought in robert bidinotto to speak and made the class participate in ayn rand institute essay contests.

i still feel fond of the fountainhead but in retrospect i also feel mindraped

>Not vigorously pursuing your own happiness.
>Being unethical in 2015

tbqh i was more interested in the sex scenes of atlas shrugged than the philosophy. i didn't even know it was a philosophy. never finished it. who is john galt?

Objectivism has it's own dimension, but it can't be some sort of hegemonic philosophy that explains life and reality.

You don't want your neurosurgeon being a total subjectivist when he's operating on your brain, you want him to have some respect for objective and measurable reality.

wait atlas shrugged had a sex scene too? I jacked off to the one in the fountainhead like 4 times when I was 15. I bet Ayn Rand was mad horny.

John Galt was the anonymous dude Eddie (Dagny's bitch) bitched to. Made no fucking sense, don't even bother.

Yeah, Ayn Rand sure loves non-con.

My fourth grade teacher had the class split into two groups, jews and nazis. The nazis got to be mean to us. The next day he switched it off and we got to be mean to the nazis. This was a few years after Zimbardi and the Stanford Prison Experiment (the experiment not the movie).
Yeah, I'm that fucking old.
He was a dipshit teacher and a Creationist. His name was Mr. Nietzsche, that didnt mean shit to me though, I was 9.
