It's bait but I'll bite.

The goal of any form of liberalism is crafting a society that exists as a neutral framework for the individual to find "happiness" and their definition of it. Liking Atlas Shrugged doesn't make you less of a liberal, it means you're considering an alternative structure that gives the individual the best room to grow.

Any Rand's attitude's do an awful job at constructing that society though.

I read it for the same reason I saw The Room.

Needless to say, I was not let down. Amazing piece of work. Hilarious all the way through.

Objectivism truly is the shittiest philosophy of all time.

The world would be terribly dull if people with different opinions didn't write things. But did she have to write in such an absurdly wordy fashion? The characters just repeat themselves for pages on end..She didn't want to show her point of view, she wanted to fucking hammer it into anyone who read that book. Seems like she had quite the inferiority complex.

Unless you believe the absurd liberal/conservative dichotomy, people with different opinions do write things, some of them incredibly well. Objectivism, and all the far right political movements who claim it, are so irredeemably shit, though, that it is impossible to write anything decent or interesting from that viewpoint. I don't think the world would be duller if we didn't have to sift through the garbage to find meaningful art, as long as there are enough varied artists to provide a multitude of experiences.

It's cellular bait

It is a great book. It has plenty of problems, certainly, but it deals with a lot of important ideas. Sadly, all of the problems she talks about in AS still exist today, and are worse than ever.

As for the left v. right meme, idk. I get called a libshit by the right, and a conservative by the left.

I ignore the political lines, and do my best to consider things as they are - apart from popular associations and perspectives.

There are always some perspectives worth conserving, and some traditional modalities which need to be addressed in a modern context and changed.

Nothing really. But most misinterpret Bioshock. Rapture fell because Ryan went back on his libertarian ideals and Fontaine tried to establish a government.

Moral of Bioshock is the exact same as Atlas Shrugged: fuck the gove
