Wagner did not employ his wife as a percussion instrument to be used in his operas, so the two facts are separate in that case, yes. But the author makes a very compelling case that Rand wasn't admiring Hickman's butt, rather she directly used Hickman's sociopathy as the archetype for the ideal man in works such as The Fountainhead. So in this case the fact that her philosophy was built around the exemplar of a corpse-mutilating child killer is indeed something that can be held against it.
He also has a good article that talks about his own experience breaking away from Objectivism that reads very similarly to testimonials from ex-scientologists. You may find it helpful.
If you mysterios weren't in such a rush to find that one quick-fix "gotcha" to finally bring me down, you might actually start posing a challenge for me. Honestly, it's like you were strategists on Hillary's campaign or something. |
