Dr. Faustus posted:Sophomore year, AP English, we were given copies of Ayn Rand's little book Anthem and given an assignment to write a paper with the theme, "Ayn Rand's Anthem As A Scathing Condemnation Of Collectivism." this is standard curriculum in a lot of school districts, she probably had nothing to do with the term "scathing"

capital in the twenty-first century suffers from the typical soft leftist rot which ignores the fact that if nothing is done, if there are no radical social movements to steer the global economy to other ends, that the consequences will be catastrophic like a lot of left-academia it's the useful Very Serious Analysis you can print in the NYT, ignoring that we are fast running out of time, that we are creating a hot house planet with billions of future refugees, resource shortages where a lot of people die  analysis of the near future without going over the necessary political responses to such dire circumstances is unhelpful hth

Shear Modulus posted:With how much Republicans love to make kids learn about how evolution is just a theory and abstinence and that slavery/the Trail of Tears/ etc weren't all that bad I'm suprised that Ayn Rand being required reading isn't more pervasive than she already is. because if you read anything else she wrote shes a militant atheist and writes a lot about atheism

Raskolnikov38 posted:the end game is dialing back the rhetoric and saber rattling and letting the ME states continue their influence wars amongst themselves without using nuclear weapons that is not at all going to happen, and is a silly fiction. as time goes forward nuclear capability is easier and easier, no one can stop Iran other than an invasion. Iran should be a natural ally, they should be friends, not our enemies.

Volkerball posted:i don't think they'll do anything to israel. the issue to me is that the left and dems are moving towards this reconciliation with iran idea, and it's largely based around a really stupid premise: that iran is cool and good, and if we be friendly to them, cool and good things will happen. we can totally crush terrorist groups who rose up specifically over oppression from iran and its proxies by just helping iran oppress them harder. a sustainable, long term solution that will in no way end poorly. confronting the iranians with hostility and militarism, going with the israelis and assuming iranians are awful villains in the bibi sense, that is the worst possible outcome for nation that is not that
