It's like if someone made all the alterations necessary in order to Judaise Hoppe

Only sociopaths resonate with her.

I stopped reading the book at the part where they made a for profit commune.
Shits retarded.
Owen Jenkins
No, I instead follow her lifestyle by being a neet on welfare larping on Jow Forums as a warrior

It made me realize how stupid libertarians are. The books that won me over politically are The Dispossessed by Ursula K Le Guin (this book is like the antithesis to anything by Rand) and Homage to Catalonia by Orwell (great non/fictional comparison of leftism vs fascism).

Yes.
Wyatt Bennett
Yes. Didn't read her fiction books and I have read that they're terrible. Read "The Virtue of Selfishness" instead. It made a lot of sense to me.
Andrew Rivera
She normalized profits over people into the popular psyche. She made it common sense to be evil. She said it was smart to take advantage of anyone and everyone you know and shun personal relationships unless they lead to financial gain.
Ryan Howard
so pretty much jew, glad i didnt read it
Jack Brown
Seconding Homage To Catalonia. Honestly that should probably be required reading in high schools over 1984
Sebastian Gray
She has an interesting perspective and there's a lot of virtue to learn from it but she takes it too far in my opinion.
She's inordinately individualistic and anti-societal which i think is outdated belief. The society extends out from the individual and should be of some concern.
For example in the fountainhead i get her criticism of the architectural world and snobbery, idiots accomplished in conformity praising each other and shunning outsiders. However that doesn't mean the system they've stagnated was rotten from the start. Renaissance architecture is an expression of europeans and thus of individuals collectively. Roark has a point as do the architects who admire the past, who she doesn't represent well.
Alexander Robinson
Not really. Her characters are indifferent to others but never really betray or exploit them.

No thanks

Ayn Rand is good if you want to get some truly deranged giggles. This poor bastard read Atlas Shrugged so you don't have to suffer through it. That woman was bonkers.

She’s a bad novelist and a worse philosopher. Even her business advice — the one thing you’d expect to make sense — is terrible. The heroes of her stories make awful decisions and magically wind up on top through processes that the narrator never explains.
If you want to learn, look elsewhere.

>reading books when you're supposed to be looking for the next bubble that can make you wealthy.
Follow Asia. Put down the reading, and make accumulating as much Trustverse are you can your main priority.
In a year or two, you'll have enough time to read while never working again.

Now that's life, pol is most definitely the new order
