The first rule of Ayn Rand Club is no one ever shuts the fuck up about Ayn Rand Club.

Libertarians always want paradise while building Bear Town (or Poop Cruise)

One reason many #libertarians love the story of Galt's Gulch in #AtlasShrugged is they actually think you can create a competitive modern society without capital. They actually don't understand that capital multiplies the power of #labor.

Serious questions for libertarians:

Should people pull over to let ambulances and police cars pass?

Or should they demand payent for that?

@andreaslindholm Your notional #entrepreneur is a straw man fallacy. Those that actually exist know they can't do everything themselves and welcome working voluntarily with others, whether they’re fixing a streetlight or building an electrical supply grid.

Don’t look to #libertarians’ plagiarized versions of her philosophy. #AynRand specifically called out the difference between free #cooperation and forced #collectivism, advocating for the former: https://newideal.aynrand.org/ayn-rands-1947-screen-guide-for-americans-part-2#/:~:text=There%20is%20a%20great%20difference%20between%20free%20co-operation%20and%20forced%20collectivism

#libertarians aren't just #savages who don't understand how normal people operate, they're apparently also pro #racism.

I don't know which is a more ridiculous talking point & rallying cry set.

1. Let's ban all gas powered cars

2. Let's not let any US company buy goods made in China (*or Russia)

3. Let's ban all consumer used single use plastics

4. Let's end all poverty aide programs of the government as said government is dismantled

Why settle with #GoldenPassports when you can have #GoldenCities?

The (long) cautionary tale of the island of #Roatan, where #libertarians & #investors set up their quasi-#extraterritorial #city "#Prospera", with permission from #Honduras to "write their own #laws and regulations, design their own #court systems, and operate their own #police forces"

Remember this whenever your hear about the likes of #Thiel, #Andreessen or #Musk seeking to establish their own kingdoms

Vivid description of #Libertarians:

"Sitting there with your copy of Atlas Shrugged with the pages all stuck together ..."

@cstross @davidgerard @alexis @bigolewannabe @Migueldeicaza Continued sadness at how 20th century #libertarians plagiarized #AynRand’s surface politics, misunderstood her ethics as vicious hedonism, and then loudly became the public caricatures everyone uses to straw-man her work and ideas.

#Objectivism is so much the opposite of their playground fantasies.

Start here:

Society organizes itself. It just does. There is NO circumstance where there is no "government" even if it means the strongest thug telling everyone what to do. Anyone trying to tell you government is bad wants to BE the government.

EVERYTHING done in society is organized by government. The rules for markets are government. The rules for weights are government. Money is government.

Government COULD just do everything in society. /1

Mocking #Libertarians is a favorite pastime of mine. This mock definition made me LOL. 🤣

Poor #libertarians, you got your own prospective American Pinochet and shot your wad all sweaty and breathlessly except you didn't do it in the basement this time and now everybody knows you're just a standard neo-Nazi scum. S'gotta suck but I can't say you didn't earn it so enjoy that personal responsibility, Chad.

The fun thing about the last six years, though, is it taught everyone what many of us knew about them for decades: whatever venomous bigoted sack of shit fascists win and wind up oppressing the shit out of people, they will have #libertarians' full and unqualified support. For liberty.
