/lit/ - Literature

Let's say that my mother makes what I believe to be the best brownies in the world. These brownies are so good that I feel they shouldn't be limited only to my family and that I want to share them with three of my coworkers. Let's also for the sake of this argument say that there are only 3 brownies left of this current batch and it's not known to us when more would be made.

I could give each of these friends a brownie and risk them not liking them, completely wasting them on someone who doesn't appreciate the greatness of my mothers brownies or I can keep them for myself so that I know they are duly appreciated. The latter of the two is in my rational self interest. Do not look too hard into this my friends. This is not some disguised and highly metaphorical argument against the core problems with objectivism. It's actually exactly what it appears to be.

It's me saying that Objectivists don't share their fucking brownies. And for me that's as good a reason as any to dismiss their philosophy entirely. Thank you.

Why /lit/ can't talk about me?
