How We Are Being Tricked to See the World Through Ayn Rand’s Pathetic Little Eyes (or) How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Vile Maxim (archive)

Yesterday, Michael Lind wrote an article for AlterNet wondering aloud how it is that today’s “doltish” conservatives have adopted the ridiculous philosophies of Ayn Rand (Alissa Rosenbaum) while noted conservatives of yesteryear considered her “preposterous”

I immediately formulated at least a partial answer to that question and as I was writing it out this morning, I happened across a video review of Elysium by Di$info Jones (video below) which proves my point to an almost cartoonish degree.

In short, Di$info says the film is beautifully filmed and well written, but it’s a piece of elitist’s propaganda to promote their ultimate goal of a ‘socialist/communist collectivism” and that it’s “the most racist film since Birth of a Nation” with “the mark of the beast” tossed in for good measure.

He goes on to rant about all the heroes in the film being brown “Latinos” and all the villains being white (except for the protagonist… Matt Damon… who can’t possibly get any whiter. In fact, he looks like a skin-head in the movie)

Grey State: The Rise is Pure Ayn Randian Neoliberal Globalist Propaganda (archive)

 “When people give money to Bill Gates or Sam Walton, he’s not taking it from you. You’re getting something in return. You’re getting a service, you’re getting a product. There is an organization that does take money from you and that’s the government” Grey State: Rise of Billionaire Hero Worship

“Osama bin Laden killed 4,000 people on 9/11. He has paid for that. he’s dead” Grey State: Rise of Sunstein Disinfo

Yes, the fake disinformation sites like Prison Planet and others are finally tipping their hands and showing us all what so many have known and said for years: they are nothing more than Cass Sunstein cognitive infiltration operations designed to make you love what it is that is enslaving you.

Someone just left a comment letting me know that the film Grey State: The Rise has been released in a rough cut version. You might recall the director of this “film” (read as “2 hour commercial for neoliberal globalist ideology”) turned up dead supposedly along with his wife and child in rather suspicious circumstances. That was just a few days ago. Perfect timing for the release of this infomercial for Ayn Randian “let them eat cake” idolatry.

I’ve only watched 5 minutes of the thing and it is absolutely sickening.

Ayn Rand Christmas Cards – from AlterNet and One from Me (archive)

Go ahead. Have a selfish psychopathic Christmas and be proud of it.

Over at AlterNet they have put together some nice little season’s greetings cards with a few of Ayn Rand’s most memorable quotes. Frankly, I think they missed out. I doubt she would be celebrating the birth of the man who gave the Sermon on the Mount, but rather that of Mammon himself. But that’s just me. 

Hey, maybe we should start a new holiday in honor of that. Just a thought. 

Here’s my offering to the collection of more accurate Christmas or Mammonmas Cards. Below the break you will find a couple from the AlterNet Collection and the rest of theirs you can find, here.
