TeaTurd Hero Ayn Rand and her bff Hickman. Of course this pesky detail is left out when invoking her. As is her atheism, prochoice stance, and living on S.S at the end of her life.

Rand, as I've posted here before, was almost certainly a psychopath (i.e. she had no capacity for empathy) and her "philosophy" is nothing more than an instruction manual in how to think as a psychopath does.

Just reacting against what other people are doing is the easiest way to find yourself going round in circles because you're no longer in control of your emotions or yourself.

From the other point of view, it's also very difficult to negotiate with someone who just wants to do the opposite of what you're doing (no matter what you do).

life miserable. The Conservatives seem to have no direction and no life goals, so they pound on those that do or are trying to make their life better.

Why? Because they do not have the gumption to do it for themselves.
