I once asked a Randite about 'Objectivism.'

"If theft is theft, doesn't that mean we should hand all the land back to the Natives?"

The answer was NO, because the Native Amercans weren't using the land in the right way...

Very rarely do you see such a mixture of arrogance, self-righteousness and utter lack of logic in a single person.

I know another orange example...

I learned some years ago that Rand wrote erotica before she wrote ""philosophy""

Then I read some of her porn. And everything clicked.

She let her self-indulgent porn fantasies leak into her philosophy, that's all.

In other words - everything she accused the "others" of being.
What was it that she called them, again? I can't be bothered to look it up, let's see if I can remember...

Empathists? Philanthropists? Something like that.

EDIT: altruists!
