It is bad and she did hate poor people but that's not why it's bad. It's bad because women can't write good literature, especially when they're ugly and venting their frustration of not having rich chads to leech off of

Pretty much this. In the mid-19th century an Italian village got swallowed by an earthquake and the Vatican, when asked why God would do such a thing, responded by saying the people in that village were sinners.

This was about when telegraph and newspapers allowed events to be heard of worldwide quicker than ever before. People all over the world looked at each other, quietly whispered "Bullshit" and since then westerners have been looking for something to fill the void left by God.

When you read about the lives of writers and artists from that time, it becomes clear that this was a big deal. There's a thread of authors from that time on who are held up as giving people a scientific or rational reason to forget ethics and morality. None of them stand up. Not one. We're still looking for something to serve as the social glue and life map that poor old religion used to work as. No -isms have done us much good.

Ayn Rand died broke on welfare.

>Ayn Rand died broke on welfare.
Yeah, she was a state puppet. She didn't actually believe anything she wrote, else she wouldn't have done half the things we know about her. Her status as ex-soviet and a female writer gave validity to her work as anti-socialist because she (a.) suffered through communism, and (b.) demonstrated that progressive politics about women were bologna. This painted a "by your bootstraps" picture of her, and allowed those around her to use her as an icon. Of course she could write about rugged individualism: from her vantage point she couldn't fail. She was a mouthpiece for obscurantist-totalitarian government; she sold her soul to the exact same totalitarians she fled from in the USSR.
>USA is a freedum and your a fascist
There is no meaningful distinction to be drawn between capitalist totalitarians and socialist totalitarians. They just use different isms to obscure their intent. They don't actually care about capitalism or socialism, they care about control.

Nobody is completely self reliant, we're all born into this world weak and defenseless and when we get old we'll need to be taken care of as well. It's ok to admit that you're weak and need help, we all need help sometimes, and some more than others.

for their sake I hope 2080-oomers aren't also harangued by a cohort of brainlet faggots who took the molyneux style bait. reminder that this is the typical ayn rand fan:

Mentioning Rand has always been a sign that someone is not a /lit/izen. OP is not representative of /lit/‘s current meme culture in any way. Even if OP had ironic intent behind his post, either making fun of Rand fanatics and comparing them to the drone-like, masculinity-obsessed propagators of the soiboi memes, or making fun of the repetitiveness and meaninglessness of our online interactions by bringing together two beaten-to-death topics in a nihilistic malaise, he still would not be representative of /lit/ because no self-respecting /lit/izen could muster up the mental energy required to press those few keys to type something about Rand even in an ironic context. She is not worth discussing.
