What, exactly, is the segment misrepresenting? It was mostly video clips of Ayn Rand expressing her thoughts directly, with a voice-over (rightly) mocking conservatives for supporting her given the fact that she was both militantly atheist and militantly pro-choice.
- t0rb3n 12y agoYou're right. Also, the absurdity of expecting facts from a comedy show has been brought to my attention just recently. All in all, what a great first comment on this site ; ) Anyway, I'd argue there is an obvious atmosphere of disgust. The voice-over before the first interview segment states her philosophy amounts to being a selfish asshole. See the relevant part of the interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFy9A7WEzPA#t=104 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFy9A7WEzPA#t=104 from 1:45 to around 3:40. The net result is the impression that everything she's saying is basically bullshit. It seems to me that it's considered unacceptable to refer to her ideas.
