“#America’s inner contradiction was the #altruist-#collectivist #ethics. #Altruism is incompatible with #freedom, with #capitalism and with #IndividualRights. One cannot combine the pursuit of #happiness with the #moral status of a sacrificial animal.”

— “Man’s #Rights” by #AynRand

@d3cline @mmasnick America is a deeply mixed economy sliding toward #socialism and has never seen full #LaissezFaire #capitalism. It is successful to the extent that the capitalist parts are begrudgingly allowed to function.

But because our culture is threaded with the #altruist moral ideal of serving others first, trade and commerce only happen because they pragmatically “work,” not because of any constitutionally inviolate recognition of the moral right to life and property.

I genuinely believe that #rishisunak is a humble and generous selfless #altruist who loves to serve the #homelesses and had no idea the cameras were watching. (aside: I don't believe any of that).

Altruist Comics is proud to launch Bullet Adventures issues 2 and 3 on Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/altruistcomics/bulletadventures2

After Dale DeSouza was sent back to Bullet’s heroic beginnings in the ‘60s last issue, we jump ahead to the present day for a battle with a new version of Diamond Dust in #2, followed by the menacing new villain Cupid, unleashed in #3. Releasing both simultaneously will have this series in readers’ hands...
