That's like 3 forms of bait in one sentence.
I'm impressed.

Objetivism is the most alpha philosophy
Young ayn rand has a strangely fuckable quality to her I can't put my finger on... She seems like she could be a character from a Tim burton movie.
Yawn.
The greatest "American" anything is the result of somewhere else. That's how America fucking works you don't.
Finally someone else who gets it. Young Ayn Rand is sexy as fuck.

The extra funny part is the only reason she was able to go to university is thanks to the communists.
Thomas Paine is the greatest American philosopher. But most non-Americans would probably disagree
No, I'm not gonna disagree.

whoa.. so this is the power of american intellectuals
deep...
Clearly wasn't "obvious" in the year 1780 when everyone and her grandma was a Christian Puritan.
To argue with a person who has renounced the use of reason is like putting Carolina BBQ sauce on a tofu burger.
Both wrong. Emerson is the greatest American philosopher not just for the content of his work but for the work he inspired that agreed and disagreed with his work. Without Emerson there would be no Whitman or Thoreau, there would be no accurate description of what it means to be an individual with no weighty ancestry, no oppressive impetus to please his nobles, and no open frontiers (both literal and metaphorical). People like Ben Franklin contributed to the concept of why America's uncultured, unhistoried, un noble situation is so fantastic, but Emerson creates the concept of American-ness that we so readily understand. In addition, the responses to his work that arise from literature ie Hawthorne, Melville, and the rest of the dark romantics are some of the greatest literary works and created some of the greatest literary traditions in the modern world.
Anyone who disagrees with me is hiding in the sarcophagus of dead thought, a place more restrictive for thought than plato's cave and needs to breath free and fresh air of the American bowers to cleanse that dusty ideology from their lungs.
>ctrl + F search for 'Rawls'
>no hits
Veeky Forums confirmed for being nothing but mere philosophical sophomores
We'll give this to you as long as Dewey is second
Rawls is a crypto-communist and as such can be dismissed out of hand.
Rawls wasn't a communist and as such can be dismissed out of hand.
>Entire philosophy based around proving that fixing economic inequality is in everyone's best interest
>not a Commie
right
He also wrote about how capitalism is the best system ever. Rawls was the proto-SJW who asserted how ameliorating poverty is "justice", using ethics rather then self-interest to promote his politics.
>ethics
oh and metaphysics
>He also wrote about how capitalism is the best system ever.
If that's true he was operating on a level of dialectical denial I rarely see.
>wants to increase wealth distribution through taxation within a capitalist framework where the means of production may be privately owned
>wants to collectivize the means of production and send political dissidents to Gulag
Do you not see the difference?
They only differ in level of brutality and both require violent force.
> he believes in dialectic materialism
No I don't. I'm not a materialist.
She looks like a young Severus Snape
Stop accusing people of not being dialectic enough then, litgger
There isn't just one kind of dialectic you ignorant fool.
Inb4 you're a pederastic socrate dialoguefag...

> Couldn't understand Kant... 'greatest american philosopher'
Absolutely not.
Sorry, but Peirce is by far the greatest American philosopher of all time. Literally 'American Aristotle'.
You forgot
>live off welfare for latter part of her life
We learn from our experiences but can also be warped by them. She learned the lessons of communism too well.
Kant couldn't understand Socrates

is there any capitalism themed porno stars called aynal rand
I could have sworn she was Yugoslav or Ukrainian. Am I the only one who thought this?
I've always imagined Dominique Francone looking like Ayn
...oh that's why she looks like a mong
haha you are funny user
no one would ever want to smell ayn rands sexy feet odour after a long day of smoking fags and preaching objectivism
haha
Sorry, her philosophy is too close to "I've got mine, fuck everyone else". I like living in a cooperative society, so I'm really not interested.
>Russian
>Rosenbaum
Are you that dumb or is this bait?
Young Ayn Rand is sexy. Old Ayn Rand is creepy.
She looks Ike David Bowie
>not knowing Nozick is the greatest american philosopher
Aren't all her female heroes basically Ayn Rand self inserts?
