I sincerely agree with the sentiment given in the quotation.

Most divisive person on this board is Nietszche.

Evola

It's quite expected

Civilization is actually just aristocrats being very polite while they walk around gardens. Incidentally the main subject of half of Henry James' novels

Foucault

its literally the opposite though

I think shes based and I love atlas shrugged. I have to read more of her though to really form an opinion on her. I think only faggy collectivists have a reason to hate her, everyone else would probably indifferent to her. Exactly the same as with peterson.

In a sense she is right, and in a sense she is wrong. We seperate and have privacy from other individuals, but the supreme eye of the collective is always watching us...

>>19543032
the sentiment is correct. just look at people who have no private lives, like politicians and celebrities. they're majority pedophiles, entirely subhumans. this is why glowie alphabet orgs and tech corporations want to destroy your privacy, they want to turn you into a lower life form: easier to control, easier to subdue.

>>19543026
"civil" countries have the lowest level of privacy in human history.

she should have read Tocqueville to see why that's a bad thing

Atlas Shrugged is an entertaining read, even if way too fucking long. Basically a chad vs virgin meme that last for a thousand chapters

well those two are sharted on because they are hack grifters who run personality cults, rand's metaphysics is also certifiably retarded and amateur hour. idk peterstein's specifics but it's obvious he has serious personal issues and the little i've seen of him has been unimpressive to say the least. that said i am an ayn rand fan (of her art anyway, the autistic dialogue is /soul/) and you should really should read her first novel We The Living to get the best understanding of Rand before her other meme books.

It isn't, though. Social atomization in the conjugal nuclear family home is vastly preferable to communism and traditional societies.

This is the one one I agree with Rand.
Even discounting mass government surveillance normalfags just live to broadcast their lives on the internet 24/7. Thots post selfies and whatever they are having for lunch to their Instagram feeds, as if we needed to be updated on every little mundane thing they did during the day.
People post private info all the time now on their social media.
There is no meaningful distinction between the private and the public life anymore. We’ve clearly regressed as a society. Our doom...

She has a shallow philosophy and went on welfare before she died

if only a capitalist like fredrich engels could have paid all her living expenses

I was once in a commie infoshop and these two old white Statler and Waldorf fucks made this same canard observation about her. THAT MONEY WAS STOLEN FROM HER AND EVERYBODY ELSE IN THE FIRST PLACE, hence no hypocrisy. Graduate grade school.

>>19543814
She was forced to pay social security, with her own money, and took it out. This is the equivalent of blaming someone when the government broke their legs.

The analogy isn't even close to being accurate. She paid into a state-run insurance company and then filed a claim when she became unable to work. That's what it was. None of this "government broke her legs" idiocy.

Privacy was a temporary blip, an abberation, between the two extremes of the all inclusiveness of tribal life and the hyperconnected informational world
