      Yes I just said that I am in fact saying Rand's imaginary Hickman, her "ideal" of this Nietzschean Ubermensch, is in fact the worst possible person in the world And that it's actually possible the real Hickman who would've "disappointed" her wasn't quite that bad

      I don’t think it has any bearing. She was “psychologizing” him, which is something she warned against as entirely unreliable for anything other than character development in her later writings. Anything he did after his usefulness as a prop ended likely wouldn’t have mattered.

      Okay My point is even if Hickman weren't real and no murder happened in real life, her fictional construct around it is deeply fucked - although the fact that one DID happen and Rand wasn't at all interested, even perfunctorily, in the victim or her family is also fucked

      Her whole ideal of a "truly free man" is inherently and completely fucked The fact that in real life she developed it while getting gooey over an actual factual child murderer just illustrates that fact, but the fact stands on its own

      Just like the demonstration of this fact we're all carefully talking around, that someone invoked Rand to justify her absurd, embarrassing crush on a piece of shit whose only accomplishment in life was jacking up the prices on desperately needed drugs

      The amount of energy you clearly spend hating this woman is more energy that I have put into hating anyone in my whole life. Ok...you do you.

      Yeah, but that's...writing a novel. It's doing something that's affirmative. Not just tearing into people. I just don't get it. Like, if you hate Ayn Rand, fine. I don't know why you have to make it a mission to destroy anyone who likes some of her work.

      It's almost as if her shitty thought pollution has had an evidently negative influence on the state of our society as it currently exists, because it works to sanitise abhorrent, antisocial practices as the "moral" ones And that's bad

      Does she understand that the worst possible PR for Ayn Rand's legacy is her, as the Woman Who Loves Pharmabro, expressing admiration for her Like she has cause and effect reversed here, anything she says she's a fan of loses credibility in the process

      There is no way to make trying to date Martin Shkreli into a good decision Saying you did it because you read a book doesn't make the decision seem better, it just makes people ask what the hell is wrong with that book
