The Critics of Objectivism (are a funny type)
ankneymichael replied to d'Anconia's topic in The Critics of Objectivism
Me : In fact I do see the value of this type of confession of impotence. Is the world so large and man so neurotic a being that men of this character cannot escape bar room brawls or the type of associates that loiter on corners of impoverished neighborhoods. Apparently the main thrust of this disgruntled animals disquietude is that he cannot seem to melt insignificantly into his background. The value here being one of an opportunity to cast moral judgment on this type of character and that presupposes that one love and desire the embodiment of morality that is an Objectivist. This in itself is a lesson to be learned. From my perspective the acolytes of the crusade for laissez-faire capitalism ought to take heed to the actual value of moral ambition in the character of the conductors of Ayn Rands' legacy and have an eye toward posterity because a cult mentality cannot thrive on facts and logic but the perception exists that it can in a world of fiction.
