lol everyone I know who reads ayn rand is a stupid prick too, and they were stupid pricks before they read it. i think her work attracts stupid pricks

the only thing I read that I thoroughly enjoyed was the ethics of selfishnesswhich was basically a critique on altruistic morality. Ithink her biggest example/claim is using the old IF A MAN WAS DROWNING IN A RIVER WOULD YOU JUMP INTO TO SAVE HIM. Altruists would say yes! But ayn rand takes it a step further and says, WAIT WHAT IF YOU CANT SWIM THEN YOUD DIE. Genius.

i dont know about objectivism but it doesn't seem so bad
