[edit] Anti-Religion

I am looking for a place to put this anti religion quote.

…that, dark incoherent rambling you take as the voice of god… is nothing more than the corpse of your mind

[edit] Endorsement of American expansionism

I have moved this section to the Objectivism article and expanded on it. I think it is better to have all the specific objections to Objectivism on one page. Nebuchadnezzar (talk) 00:37, 12 July 2014 (UTC)

[edit] John Galt vs Che Guevara

The horseshoe theory has a lot to answer for. ЩєазєюіδWeaselly.jpgMethinks it is a Weasel 01:57, 20 September 2014 (UTC)

Liberals hate one of these people. One was a mass murdering bandit. The other wrote books. --Let Them Eat Cake (talk) 20:14, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
Fuck that noise. I'm not a liberal, I'm a straight up communist, and let me loudly declare that I despise Che Guevara for his crimes. And I also think Ayn Rand is pretty shitty.--"Shut up, Brx." 21:23, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
Ah, those pesky Liberals, who all feel exactly the same way about this week's talking point. You sound like Andy Schlafly. SophieWilderModerator 20:27, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
"The Americans speak about (nuclear war) as if they did not know or did not want to accept this fact. I have no doubt they would lose such a war." And who was the POTUS at that time? Osaka Sun (talk) 20:57, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
Wait, Weaseloid, at the risk of lowering your opinion of me even further, I don't get what those images have in commmon, other than maybe being a bit blurry. If you explain it to me, I promise I'll show you this cute video of ferrets I found the other day.--"Shut up, Brx." 21:25, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
The cap, the commie star, the messianic glow, the inspirational soundbite. ωεαşεζόίďWeaselly.jpgMethinks it is a Weasel 22:31, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
Hey Weaseloid would it be possible for you to shrink those images down a bit and put them next to the Communism vs objectvism section on the horsehoe thoery page? I would do it but I'm not very good with images but I still think it would be amusing.ClothCoat (talk) 04:31, 23 September 2014 (UTC)
Done. WēāŝēīōīďWeaselly.jpgMethinks it is a Weasel 07:25, 23 September 2014 (UTC)
Thanks. ClothCoat (talk) 07:55, 23 September 2014 (UTC)
Well Mr. Shutup, if it's mass murderers you have a problem with then there aren't many people who share your ideology whom you can very well look up to are there? Oh and Sophie, was that addressed at me? --Let Them Eat Cake (talk) 14:10, 27 September 2014 (UTC)
Why would I need to look up to anyone?--"Shut up, Brx." 16:47, 27 September 2014 (UTC)

I didn't mean look up to as a superior, I meant look up to as an example or inspiration, a hero if you will. The only heroic Communist I can think of was Nelson Mandella who was heroic in spite of being a Communist rather than because of it. The rest were mass murdering psychopaths. Lenin, Trotsky, Stalin, Castro, Chavez, Guevara of course and of course the world's current leading Communist Kim Jong-un. My personal heroes are Ayn Rand, Oscar Wilde, Winston Churchill and Christopher Hitchens and yes, I know Wilde was a socialist but that's only because he thought it would lead to individualism so he was wrong but for the right reasons and yes Hitchens was a Marxist initially but he saw the error of his ways didn't he. --Let Them Eat Cake (talk) 10:58, 10 October 2014 (UTC)

[edit] That synopsis cracked me up.

This site normally doesn't make me laugh, so thanks to whoever added that. It's hilarious that's actually from the Ayn Rand website. Exiled Encyclopedist (talk) 17:21, 24 December 2014 (UTC)
