Thanks. I'm a huge fan.

He's going to take questions from the audience. Can you imagine addressing him?

I'd be reduced to a stuttering, adoring fool.

:lol: @ the dig at Randians

So, according to LibertarianAS's own ethos and moral system, they should be Gods Among Insects.*



*Yes, I know LibertarianAS is almost certainly factually wrong here, but the internal inconsistency is just too hilarious.

....neither Chomsky nor Moore is a billionaire....or even close....

....and it'd really only be ironic if either was opposed to a monetary system wholesale....

OH THE FAIL.

Noam Chomsky's theory on universal grammar is BS, so I refuse to like him. :P

So, LibertarianAS is a notorious flip flopper who suddenly cares about integrity, consistency and idealism when it comes to public intellectuals and film-makers, but thinks corporate execs should have all the power to lie, cheat, and steal. Truly, the Randian cult is not consistent.

SOCIALISM=get paid the same regardless of job
wtf how is Michael Moore a socialist? Do you know the definition of that word? And no, it doesn't mean "Anyone who is further left than you". Michael Moore is simply a liberal clown. When has he advocated for a janitor being paid the same as a doctor?

Please provide a definition of socialism that states that, under all times and in all contexts, every socialist must somehow magically make their wealth "equal" to everyone else's in a vastly unequal society without any chance of structural reforms happening. Because not everyone follows the same moronic illogic that right-libertopians do.
