"Ho ho ho, I got you, I got you, successfully trolled" Yes It's deeply fucked up and it should bother anyone who hears about it

Rand was powerless during the Russian Revolution, so she may have created an elaborate selfish fantasy where she would have absolute power?

Plenty of people have been powerless and written about it. Only Rand wrote her ode to selfishness.

@DaylightAtheism did a read through of Atlas Shrugged, and one thing he brought up is that Galt's Gulch is basically a feudal aristocracy where all the labor reserved for the serfs is either automated or can easily be done by the super elite. -
There are more examples than that! In Atlas Shrugged, Eddie Willers, the heroine Dagny's right-hand man, loves and worships her and serves her faithfully, and his reward at the end is... to be abandoned to die in the desert because he's not one of the ubermenschen.

It's controversial to say this because Nietzsche did make it into the Great Thinker canon and Rand didn't, at least partly because he really was smarter and a better writer, but yeah I mean it's hard not to look at him and just see edgelord ranting that doesn't go anywhere
