Mark Gardner<a href="https://atomicpoet.org/users/atomicpoet" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@atomicpoet</a> I like Barbara Branden’s answer (as recounted by <a href="https://social.sdf.org/tags/AynRand" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AynRand</a>) to the question: “What will happen to the poor in an <a href="https://social.sdf.org/tags/Objectivist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Objectivist</a> society?”“If *you* want to help them, you will not be stopped.”<a href="https://a.co/1UCeYwP" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://a.co/1UCeYwP</a>(Rand had nothing against voluntary giving but viewed it “as a marginal issue. What [she fought] is the idea that <a href="https://social.sdf.org/tags/charity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#charity</a> is a moral duty and a primary virtue.” <a href="https://a.co/aAXS385" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://a.co/aAXS385</a>)<a href="https://social.sdf.org/tags/philosophy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#philosophy</a> <a href="https://social.sdf.org/tags/ethics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ethics</a> <a href="https://social.sdf.org/tags/Objectivism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Objectivism</a>

mcjevansIn <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Objectivist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Objectivist</a> philosophy, the four main pillars are objective reality, absolute reason, self-interest, and laissez-faire <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/capitalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#capitalism</a>. That fourth one always seemed to me like it was just tacked onto an otherwise reasonable chain of logic.

Mark Gardner<a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/@strypey" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@strypey</a> That’s amazing! Because I found *dozens* of mentions across six chapters (not even counting the appendix) of a *single* <a href="https://social.sdf.org/tags/AynRand" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AynRand</a> book: ‘Introduction to <a href="https://social.sdf.org/tags/Objectivist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Objectivist</a> <a href="https://social.sdf.org/tags/Epistemology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Epistemology</a>’: <a href="https://aynrand.org/novels/introduction-to-objectivist-epistemology/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://aynrand.org/novels/introduction-to-objectivist-epistemology/</a>I thought <a href="https://mastodon.social/@davidbrin" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@davidbrin</a> was a writer. Do writers not do research anymore?Instead of primary sources, Wikipedia’s summaries may be more his and your speed.
