“/end rand”

ISWYDT

Edit: I do find the Randian (or more likely “rant” typo) discourse somewhat polemic. You merely substitute dysfunctional fundamentalist / absolutist system A for fundamentalist / absolutist system B.

Having read the article, I see no such hint of abolishment or abandonment of the capitalist system.

What I do see however, is the notion that such fundamentalism should be tempered with balancing laws or cultural restraints.

Surely this isn't such an apocalyptic notion, is it?



“/end rand”

You could have left it at that, and it would have been a perfect reply.


I did originally.

I worried the HN crowd would have frowned on it.

Something to be said about the negative impacts of surveillance society on the censorship of the self I am sure. ;)
