Zone1 HYPOCRISY: In The End Ayn Rand Revealed Her True Self And It Was Not Pretty or Objective

[Dante]

We also will have a few YouTube links with Atn, in her own words. Hows that? In a conversation thread on Thomas Sowell's Twitter Feed: Sowell Economics ( @sowelleconomics )

Ayn Rand, the Atheist who believed it's lights out, yet a grave with headstone and more?

[ She rejected all claims of non-perceptual or a priori knowledge, including "'instinct,' 'intuition,' 'revelation,' or any form of 'just knowing.

... despite her initial objections...sign her up for Social Security and Medicare

Branden later apologized in an interview to "every student of Objectivism" for "perpetuating the Ayn Rand mystique" and for "contributing to that dreadful atmosphere of intellectual repressiveness that pervades the Objectivist movement." - [ Wikipedia Entry ]

I thank another member for reviving this truly fascinating topic. We post this thread OP here, because Ayn claimed her 'THING' was a philosophy. But many young, impressionable men and women, soon grow out of that nonsensical belief system

From Dante's Archies:

Behind-the-Scenes of Ayn Rand’s Second Interview with Mike Wallace

Rand displays clarity of conviction in this newly released broadcast.

[Dante]

The Great Objectivist, the Ultimate individualist who while alive, claimed she needed no one's help nor would she aspect any - on principle - died having accepted help from the collective she despised. The philosopher of selfishness survived her final years through programs funded by others' sacrifice.

The ultimate irony: The woman who preached independence, ended up dependent. She never admitted it.

Then she got sick and collected Social Security under a her legal married name, That of her husband.

Ayn Rand collected Social Security and Medicare benefits in the 1970s under the name Ann O'Connor (or Ann O'Connor Rand), using her legal married name. She was married to Frank O'Connor, and records uncovered via a Freedom of Information Act request confirmed these payments were received. [1, 2]

• Context: Despite her philosophical opposition to government assistance programs, she, along with her husband, accepted these benefits late in life.
• Name Used: Records listed her as Ann O'Connor (her husband's surname).
• Mechanism: She received payments between 1974 and 1982. [1, 2, 3]

While she often used the pseudonym "Ayn Rand" for her professional writing, the government records utilized her legal name

She just cashed the checks.

So this OP is about a dead person having a gravestone and a woman who got SS. A fund she paid into.
Mkay. Great thread, homo.

I'll grant you Randism is a study in the socio-political universe Dante, but look what she escaped from.....~S~

What fake name? Oh you mean her real name? Dumbass.
Ayn Rand was her pen name

Nope. Not sure why you...

Exactly. That is what I tell people when I critique her madness. Damaged goods.

Ayn Rand has no love for American Federalism. Republicanism is far older than America.
Soviet Jews brought their fears and demons with them, as all groups do. Doesn't make their fears and demons rational here in America.

Government uses force in the name of the the citizenry is whose name it acts. The citizenry has the power to change government.

Dante did not use the words that the meme does. He wrote that she used her "married name" that few knew of, in an attempt to hide things.

You again are the actual dumbass

K. Have fun bitching about headstones and social security.

Thread 'My Mind Is Not For Sale or A Parody of Ayn Rand'

I just love this guy's small piece of parody

``I want to give you a raise,'' she said.
``No, Miss Stank.''
And he threw back his hood and laughed.

His face was like one she had never seen, but always known. It was
a proud face, with hard, angular cheeks and cold, clear eyes; and it was crowned
with black, angular hair. Intelligence shone from it like light from an

``Why not?''
``Because my mind is not for sale.''
``I don't understand.''
``Do you see these tools?''
He held up his belt of window-washing tools.

``Who do you think made them? Man did; or, man's mind did.
Squeegee, wash bottle, soap---each is the product of man's mind.
Man makes his tools with his mind. With his mind, man makes his tools.''
He lifted the belt higher. ``But man, who makes his tools---with
his mind!---can also discard them. Like this.''
He hurled the belt into the darkness.

``Who is John Goat? If you really want to know, you'll have to come
with me, Miss Stank.''
He tore the robe from his body, and was naked.
Dallas gave him her hand, and he took it. They leapt from the train
together, and rose into the objective moonlight.

Dumbass.

Dante posted the meme, and added his own claim - i.e., the word you are hanging onto

You are sooo very stupid here. Stupider than normal.

 

[Dante]

Communism distorts people minds. Especially the minds of those who fear it more than they fear anything else.

Communism helped warp the mind of Ayn Rand, who ended up pining for the good old days of The Czars.

I never liked anything about her so my lack of respect for her is unchanged.
