What makes Ayn Rand such a great novelist?
>>
She was right. People want to larp about how punk and rebellious they are, but then they seethe about anything that actually is a show of rebellion and defiance against the world and society.
>>
She gave a certain audience exactly what they wanted. On some level that's successful writing. Well, the audience probably didn't want to read about how everyone wants to fuck her self-insert, but the audience really just needs the spark notes version (chatGPT summary for the zoomers) to confirm their biases.

You are an exquisite clown.

I'm shitposting, but it is one of those books whose ideas have outpaced the appeal of the narrative and the continued existence of the book validates it's ideas more than people going through and agreeing with the ideas because they engaged with a compelling narrative.

>post with a vague question to mimic some sympathy for Ayn Rand
>sensationalist pic to bait all the Rand worshippers and haters

I suggest changing the matter of discussion to: what makes this thread the worst in the catalog?
>>
>>24948293
It is almost like that is the point of objectivism if you are going to strip it to pure basics to make it comprehensible to retards, yes.
>>24948296
Well yea, but that really goes for all ideologies and philosophies. People are tribalistic animals who seek confirmation to their biases.
>>
>>24948274
Now THAT'S a loaded question.
>>
>Don't ever tell me what i can't do
So the philosophy of Ayn Rand is the philosophy of John Locke from mystery box television series Lost?
