Really elaborate plan that will probably end up failing because the book, and its author, only got big because it gave greedy bastards an excuse to be so unashamedly greedy. If not this trash then another work of trash.
Ayn Rand did more than write a book, she actually started a movement and even had a fling with L. Ron Hubbard to learn how to properly cult...
She never believed in scientology and thought L. Ron was a great man for running such a successful con.
She also hated religion in general, for she saw it as a form of collective bargaining and hated it for encouraging people to not be selflish.
Rand was a monster
She literally said altruism was evil. I mean what the ever-living fuck?
Not only that, but satanism, and I don't mean edgy atheists pretending to worship the devil in order to troll right leaning judges, but actual honest-to-Dog satanists, actually cite Ayn Rand is a major source of inspiration, and someone to look up to in terms of how to be a good person.
No I know that the satanists who Worship in the way that I'm speaking, Anton LaVey and his alike do not literally worship satan. But they are still very evil people who do terrible things.
I mean their book literally says that it is foolish for one to give up the world, only to gain their own soul. Lot of very strong, "Are we the baddies?" Energy
Yeah, LaVeyan Satanism is Ayn Rand with some woo woo window dressing.
The term woo woo has been poisoned for me
