re: #681 austin_blue

You apparently disagree, with this Ayn Rand guff. The Virtue of Selfishness is at direct odds with the Founder’s philosophy.

The Virtue of Selfishness is crap calculated to promote an ‘ethic’ which is overwhelmingly appealing to the adolescent and the the morally inferior: it pretends to find a a deep philosophical justification for taking what you want when you want from whoever you want, and explains to you that it’s really altruism that’s bad and that true strength and virtue consists in doing whatever the fuck you want whenever you want.

It’s a codification of all our basest desires and attempts to justify them.

BTW, I misread ‘philosophy’ above when I read your comment as ‘pornography’. And I’m not even drunk. How are you, austin?
