- Maro 14y agoThe funny bits are the Ayn Rand lines. Rand was a philosopher-writer. She wrote two famous books, The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged, which codify her philosophy, Objectivism. Objectivism has Man as a divinely rational, self-interested, high-achieving capitalist at its center. According to Objectivism, this is what you must strive for, and society must not get in the way (Laissez-faire). She also has a special take on gender relations, for example all her protagonists, both male and female, are single, rich, genius, capitalist workaholics working as solitary inventor-engineers who don't have children since they have no time for such matters. Although her books (and philosophy) are somewhat simple and two dimensional, it's still interesting to read and ponder, so she became somewhat rich and famous. This led to her ego lifting off and reaching orbit, so eventually a cult around her formed, and apparently she became a bit difficult, casting out members who didn't agree with her, including her lover(s). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayn_Rand http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayn_Rand
- HeXetic 14y agoThe disclaimer page makes it obvious: http://www.arpanetdialogues.net/disclaimer/ http://www.arpanetdialogues.net/disclaimer/ The wording is intensely verbose but basically boils down to: "We made this all up as an art project".
