Hey man, don't look at me, my tongue is plowed firmly in my cheek.

TheGeniusofAynRand on the genius of Ayn Rand: Good lord, Ayn Rand was a vicious old shrew that the world's much better off without. I've never read a single one of her doorstops mind you (much better as packing material, or insulating your walls), but for all the marginally-bright assholes that have used her cut-rate philosophy to justify their extraordinary sense of entitlement and to obscure their luck in the birth lottery, then she's suffered a mountainous cosmic debt.

More power to you for actually getting through any of them.

I was reading recently (just a little) about the Jacobin republic. I don't know why Robespierre isn't used to mock the Rand fantasies more.
