Rearden Dannager shipping though. I mean they're too alike. Like but during the story I keep imagining that they fuck all the time.

Wait hold up you were on-board with my ship the whole time and I just forgot!?

Who came up with the name "executive committee"? Is it supposed to be ironic like Ayn rands "The Collective"? Cause both executive and committee sound ironic.

No, it’s a shortening. The original name was “Libertarian Party of Tumblr, Executive Committee”. @realitychemist (iirc) made this great logo with the Tumblr T over a porcupine. I wonder if he still has that file laying around, it’d be cool to use as an icon or something.

Ehh the morality portion of Peikoff's book objectivism. It's somewhat semantic. It's incredibly close to supporting a consequentialist morality but is slightly different.

I wasn’t impressed with Peikoff’s book. See my review from last spring.

Wait I don't get exactly what your response to my response means. Mine meant "non aggression is absolute just the usual result of rational life promoting self interest which would be the absolute you mustn't violate"

What part are you confused about?

Non aggression is supposed to be a higher level consequential abstract of simple rational self interest in objectivism

See what comes of hanging around vulgar libertarians?

In all seriousness, that’s exactly the problem. 2014!me thought that he had all the answers, when really I barely understood the ideology I was advancing.

I picked the first two points that weren’t poems. That’s not cherry picking. It’s disregarding a bs article because it...
