Thread for the discussion of the philosophical system of Objectivism and its founder, Ayn Rand.
>WHAT IS OBJECTIVISM? Objectivism is a full system of philosophy advocating reason and egoism, created and defined by Ayn Rand and further presented in books such as Atlas Shrugged, The Virtue of Selfishness, and An Introduction to Objectivist Epistemology, among various others. Further reading can be found at: theobjectivestandard.com/what-is-objectivism/ and aynrand.org/ideas/philosophy and
>WHAT ARE THE ESSENTIAL TENETS OF OBJECTIVISM? Metaphysics: Objective Reality - “Nature, to be commanded, must be obeyed”/“Wishing won’t make it so.” Epistemology: Reason - “You can’t eat your cake and have it, too.” Ethics: Self-interest - “Man is an end in himself.” Politics: Capitalism - “Give me liberty or give me death.” Further reading: aynrandlexicon.com/ayn-rand-ideas/introducing-objectivism.html
COMMON MISCONCEPTIONS REGARDING OBJECTIVISM/AYN RAND >Ayn Rand was a Jew/Objectivism is a Jewish ideology Leonard Peikoff, Ayn Rand's designated intellectual heir, has been explicit about Jewish tribalism and how nasty it is peikoff.com/2013/12/30/are-jewish-people-racist/. Similarly, Jews hated Rand with a passion for things like opposing desegregation and calling Israel a fascist state.
>Aren’t people already too selfish? Just do whatever you feel like, be a thoughtless jerk, and exploit people to get ahead Ayn Rand argued that acting thoughtlessly and victimizing others is not in your self-interest.
>Isn't Objectivism Libertarian/AnCap? No. Ayn Rand disliked Libertarianism and considered Libertarians to be the "hippies of the right". She likewise considered anarchism irrational. campus.aynrand.org/lexicon/libertarians

Have to start off with the hometown.
Honestly a great little town, amazing German architecture and because it is a town the people are great and you pretty much know everyone in your area and everyone knows you. Shame that I don't really remember too much about it since I've only lived there when I was really young.
Also the mayor is still German so that's a plus, it'd be better if he wasn't a wee lefty like most German politicians today but atleast it's something, granted that I don't know much about Polish politics since it never really interested me.
They are somewhat-autistic youngsters who don't have the normal degenerate experience of today's youth, hookup culture, drugs, alcohol abuse, etc, mostly due to them being socially withdrawn and friendless. They then discover with a relatively clear head that those aforementioned things they were encouraged towards by social pressure and the media are actually destructive and unpleasant, resulting in problems for many many people. So it is a very natural rational response for disaffected young people to end up being conservative.

>The Royal Navy expected Fleet Street to conduct a Second World War-style positive news campaign but the majority of the British media, especially the BBC, reported the war in a neutral fashion. These reporters referred to "the British troops" and "the Argentinian troops" instead of "our lads" and the "Argies".

I assume you're referring to (You) (Cross-thread) Which while hilariously oversimplified, doesn't contradict >The only fucking difference's between a UK bill of rights and what we have now is that the ECtHR won't be the Supreme Court of Human Rights, nor will EU directives be required to have national law made to reflect its aims, nor will EU regulations become law automatically. Directives and regulations will become the remit of Parliament and the ECHR will not hold legal weight, but we would still have the HRA. Significantly anyway. The very problem is that it comes under the remit of parliament: There's less in the way of it being the ultimate power, less political consequence to tinkering with things. (Consider it analogous to the "higher power to appeal to" reason the SNP like the EU.)
