If you think well of Ayn Rand, born Alisa Zinovyevna Rosenbaum, you might be well served by rethinking some of your beliefs.
Even a blind squirrel finds a nut or two once in a while … just like a stopped clock is correct twice a day …
Identifying problems is easy, it is the other part she perverts, and she doesn’t even identify all the problems correctly.
Right.
So which matters most? The nut or the blind squirrel? The stopped clock or the correct time?
Communists and Socialists despise Ayn Rand, too. Which are you?
Notice they don’t answer your questions Un.
Rand is/was the messenger, it was her assignment to tell us what was on the horizon…. THEY are required to tell us ahead of time IN SOME WAY. Game rules require this.
Do you hold it against a jooish Russian/commie if they are giving you a heads up? Are you REALLY against individualism?
Nice try but not buying it.
Flea- That was no “try”, that is the truith. The 200 year cycle chart below thanks to Liberty is accurate. TPTB use manipulation to keep the cycle in motion, Rand informed you of the “manipulation” in our future. They are destroyers, but they are obliged to give you a look/clue as to where they are taking you. Rand did a very good job of relating these things, and doubly good in “The New Left: The Anti-Industrial Revolution”. Read it and get back to me.
Might I add, That particular book of Rand’s is still unfolding and will continue to unfold.
The capacity of commenters here to judge by anything other than ideology and actions is a one-size-fits-all tactic not at all unlike the tactics employed by the Hive-mind that we all profess to loathe on this site.
Alisa Rosenbaum’s family fled St. Petersburg Russia to Crimea in 1917 to escape the Bolsheviks who had shut down her father’s pharmacy business. Her family suffered years in poverty before she spent her entire life writing and speaking out against Marxist ideology. Now we are supposed to believe it was all an act because she was a secret commie telegraphing what was to come on behalf of some conspiratorial ties to Bolshevism in the long joo war against white people?
Please provide the links to that theory.
Otherwise as one who is as conspiracy-minded as anyone here, is it possible Rand’s secret espionage could all be imagined in your head?
Not sayin’ you’re wrong, just sayin’.
Whose game and who’s playing and who’s doing the requiring always makes for some interesting questions and answers and subject to the belief of the beholders.
Piss off with the which are you bullshit. That’s all you’ve presented so far is bs cutesy one liners right from Uncle Sauls playbook. You’ve got to be one of the dullest pennies in the bank.
It’s not an either or choice you shallow dullard.
You and BL sound like frantic civil affairs officers, who are butthurt that their make-it-or-break-it psyop campaign to rehabilitate lolbertardianism isn’t being received well at all by its intended victims.

Rand, the queen mother of Libertarianism and Crown Princess of Galt. Galt is to selfish fiction what her sister Anne Frank is to Holo fiction.
Thanks to us and Flash we’ve forced the Randites to change into a prettier dress and come out as “Neo Conservative Libertarians”. Cafeteria Morality.
Ad hominem objections much?
What’s wrong with the quote? Y’all got something against individualism, liberty, privacy and civilization or something?
As applied by Rand and libertarians Yes I do. And no I’m not going to explain it any further. If you can’t think that through yourself nothing I say will matter.
If it’s true it’s true. If it’s not it’s not. Nothing more. Nothing less.
Libertarianism is an idea.
Keep what works, toss the rest.
Results are what matter and Rand applied nothing, really.

I have not read any of Rand’s books but have on occasion been suggested to do so by some. I would appreciate your comments or links to commentary on what is wrong with her writings. Thanks.
Hear, Hear.
Amen Un, individualism is the point, to attack that is very close to commie for me. Downright boneheaded.
That’s the point.
The truth is undeniable regardless of personal opinions and predilections.
Easy times breed soft people, soft people lead to hard times…
In the 30’s people were by far more self sufficient and hard working than now, and they had a hell of a time, can’t imagine what all these soy lattes are gonna do when things even get a bit bent, prolly just fold up and cry
At least on the dissident right, Spiritual Faith seems to be surging. I don’t even think its a zeitgeist or influencing each other, its just the only placed left to turn for people who are brave enough to see what is really there.
I don’t know what numbers are, because nobody can know, but It makes me wonder where on that circle we might be. I think there has been great dependence and bondage already, but many are still to blind to see.
I’ll own a great deal of auto-loading weapons and a great deal of ammo for them.
And I will be happy.
You being happy, Herr Schwab?…We shall see.
21st century slave sleeping quarters have steps, lights and storage shelves.
… and literacy facilitates writing a fleeting name in chalk dust.
Hey, those slaves didn’t have as bad we were taught. Look at those fine beds and mattresses.
It looks like it is underground so it would be cooler in the summers, too.
Not only that but if they were still in Africa they’d be sleeping on the dirt.
I think our owners view utopia as some form of ‘Logan’s Run’ … for the masses.
This might be more in line with what they intend to give the survivors. At least the more generous of the Neo Feudal Lords who will own you outright.
Or maybe this. The two penny hangover.
The poorest denizens of AmeriKa live like kings and queens compared to these typical subsidence workers. What percentage of AmeriKans do you think have a clue just how easy life is comparatively…for now? BTW, thanks for posting the photo. Any idea when/where?
Falcon the link won’t show but if you move your mouse over most pictures and left click it will bring up the picture with the url.
Dickinsonian London. Google dickens london sleep houses or rope houses, hangover houses. These are some of the cleaner ones. The storyline was the bed vermin were beyond American imaginations to comprehend.
And sleep depravation leads to cognitive decline and poor health. That’s very horrific. The Frontier must have been very alluring.
Flea- I read a couple days ago that (some) companies will offer very tiny pod dwellings at $800 a month in the future. Most share communal bathrooms and eating areas. They brag of this offer as if they are doing these workers a HUGE favor. Hard to believe Merika has fallen to this sorry state.
Hyperinflation will be extremely hard on our population. While the .001% become richer by the day.
I saw something similar and said “YUP” and they’ll be happy.
.001% are easy to find. Rich won’t buy redemption because they bleed out at the same rate as all humans
Since the picture shows sleeping accommodations, I figured that this is a good spot to say that
I stayed in a hotel in Princeton, NJ, last night and thought of the two of you, Avalon and Admin. No joke.
Still-maskers everywhere, in case you were wondering.
You will own a 1995 Buick and be very happy.
It’s possible.
Maybe if you are super rich or something.
Those were some really good dependable cars.
Worked in “Army of Darkness” for Ash.
Except it was a 1973 Olds Delta 88…
And you will pay $800-$1,000 per month. Plus, you will share your living quarters with 13-18 other people.
Whoo hoo!/sarc.
If you own something, there will always be someone that wants to take it from you.
Either an ex-wife, an ex-business partner, a civil suit plaintiff, a thief, or the government (but I repeat myself).
So, it is better to ‘own’ nothing.
All assets can be property of a duly registered C-corporation.
Of which one might be the registered agent.
Some Joe Donut could be the CEO.
So one could ‘own’ nothing.
And be very happy.
Are those quarters for the negro or the german slaves?
