Yay! Political argument on /.

Er, sorry, I mean, a bunch of idiots banging on about zany, toddler-IQ ideas of freedom. Atlas Shrugged is so boring and badly written I can't believe anyone, not even Ayn Rand, has ever read it. Still, Gary Cooper was cute in The Fountainhead.

Why is the only thing that passes for politics in geek circles (and I'm talking about the whole discussion, not just this poster) is this screw-everyone, I've just watched 'The Wild One' rampant, sub-Nietzschean un-individual individualism? Are all geeks destined to live their life by the same cliches?

Just because everyone hates you (and what geek isn't despised by most of right-thinking society) doesn't mean you shouldn't have *some* respect for the human race.

And please, try and read more than one book before you formulate a view on any topic, least of all the role of human beings in the world.
