The “Green New Deal”…”mostly peaceful” protests…”Gender Reassignment” of kids…legalized recreational drugs…open borders…”personal pronouns“…”safe spaces” from Free Speech…reverse discrimination…Liberal “Sience“…transgender athletes destroying women’s sports…”Wokeness“…Reparations…America as Evil…etc.
What might Ayn Rand, well-known fiction writer and Libertarian Objectivist, have to say about these efforts by Progressive Democrats to destructively transform America?
Probably this…
“The uncontested absurdities of today are the accepted slogans of tomorrow. They come to be accepted
by degrees,
by precedent,
by implication,
by erosion,
by default,
by dint of constant pressure on one side and constant retreat on the other- until the day when they are suddenly declared to be the country’s official ideology.”
- Ayn Rand, Letters of Ayn Rand
And, if you have about an hour to spare and want to learn what a world would be like if Climate Change activists (what she called “Ecological Crusaders“) succeed in controlling the advance of technology, listen to what Ayn Rand said in a lecture she gave in 1970:
Ayn Rand, “The Anti-Industrial Revolution“
Presented at the Ford Hall Forum, Boston MA, November 1970 (57 minutes)
“What do [the Ecological Crusaders] regard as the proper life for working people? A life of unrelieved drudgery, of endless, gray toil, with no rest, no travel, no pleasure…above all, no pleasure. Those drugged, fornicating hedonists do not know that man cannot live by toil alone, that pleasure is a necessity…”
Did you know? “Ayn Rand” was the pen name of Alice O’Connor, a Russian Jew born Alisa Zinovyevna Rosenbaum on February 2 1905. Lewis Carrol, author of the 1865 novel “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland“, was a mathematics professor at Oxford University. And “Wonderland” was the name of the short-lived amusement park at Revere Beach, Revere MA.
