So, some of you guys may know that I really like a couple of Ayn Rands books (Anthem and Fountainhead), but I've never really been all that interested in the philosophical side of the whole thing, because I assumed it would be filled with pedantic philosophers. But recently I went and registered on an objectivism forum and looked around and registered to see what it was really like in there.
But boy howdy those are some nutjobs in there. In fact calling them philosophers is a bit of stretch. Religious zealots is a more accurate term.
Anyways, I think a big part of their problem is that they operate in a circle jerk vacuum, and there is little I disdain more than the intellectual who refuses to challenge his views.
So, I started thinking it would be fun if a large group of people (from all sorts of philosophical backgrounds) went and registered there and started posting in there and throwing in their views. Really shit up the place you know? But who could I bring in for such a task? Where could I find a hive of such wretched scum and villainy?
Ah yes. There you guys are. So who's interested?
edit: Oh yeah, thought I should include a link to the place eh?
edit2: I'm removing the link until Dave sancitons this. Dude please sanction it.
I would suggest not going straight from the link though, if we do then a webmaster worth much of a damn would figure out that all these new accounts were coming from here.
