Where do I stand?

If you already know who Ayn Rand was then you probably already have some fairly strong views about her. What I’m going to do in this post is look at what Ayn Rand really believed, who she has influenced and how she has changed our world. Many people think Ayn Rand was a libertarian. I’m not a libertarian but from watching the Milton Friedman lectures I can see the arguments. The best argument for libertarianism in my view is that capitalism is a more efficient system than communism. Of course, there are many shades in between capitalism and communism and I think that some people are forgetting that the slippery slope can go both ways.

Many followers of Ayn Rand like her non-aggression principle. This is the idea that all forms of force are morally wrong. However this is not what Ayn Rand actually stood for because her hero was a serial killer sociopath.

But who was Ayn Rand?

Ayn Rand was a novelist and playwright born in 1905. She grew up in the USSR where her experience of the brutal communist regime scarred her and made her hate socialism in all its forms. Her most famous work was Atlas Shrugged. Atlas Shrugged was a novel about oppressed intellectuals taking a stand against a communist government in the United States in a distopian future.

Above: An XKCD comic about Ayn Rand

The theme of her books is “rational self interest”, or what she called “objectivism”. This is the idea that everybody should do what they want to do in order to get ahead in an unregulated capitalist society. She is often seen by many libertarians as a champion of their cause, but in reality Ayn Rand hated libertarians.

“All kinds of people today call themselves “libertarians,” especially something calling itself the New Right, which consists of hippies who are anarchists instead of leftist collectivists; but anarchists are collectivists. Capitalism is the one system that requires absolute objective law, yet libertarians combine capitalism and anarchism. That’s worse than anything the New Left has proposed. It’s a mockery of philosophy and ideology. They sling slogans and try to ride on two bandwagons. They want to be hippies, but don’t want to preach collectivism because those jobs are already taken. But anarchism is a logical outgrowth of the anti-intellectual side of collectivism. I could deal with a Marxist with a greater chance of reaching some kind of understanding, and with much greater respect. Anarchists are the scum of the intellectual world of the Left, which has given them up. So the Right picks up another leftist discard. That’s the libertarian movement. “

Why do we care?

Companies like Apple in silicon valley name servers after things in the books. People name their children after the characters. There have been episodes of The Simpsons and South Park parodying her stories. Alan Greenspan, chairman of the Federal Reserve from 1987 to 2006 was a follower. Her work was incredibly popular in the United States and she became a cult leader.

“Just as Communists are often instructed not to read anti-Communist literature, the Rand cult went further to disseminate what was virtually an Index of Permitted Books.” “In a development eerily reminiscent of the organized hatred directed against the arch- heretic Emanuel Goldstein in Orwell’s 1984, Rand cultists were required to sign a loyalty oath to Rand; essential to the loyalty oath was a declaration that the signer would henceforth never read any future works of the apostate and arch-heretic Branden [Rand’s number 2].” “Any Rand cultist seen carrying a book or writing by Branden was promptly excommunicated.” “Wit and humor, as might be gathered from this incident, were verboten in the Randian movement. The philosophical rationale was that humor demonstrates that one “is not serious about one’s values.”” “The guiding spirit of the Randian movement was not individual liberty – as it seemed to many young members – but rather personal power for Ayn Rand and her leading disciples.”

– Murray Rothbard – founder of modern libertarianism, chief academic officer of leading libertarian think tank the Mises Institute, and one of the most important thinkers in the Austrian School of Economics

The Federal Reserve

I mentioned Alan Greenspan, a follower of Ayn Rand who was chairman of the Federal Reserve. But what is the federal reserve?

The Federal Reserve is the central banking system for the United States. Its job is to regulate banks and issue currency.

Above: A graph showing the amount of United States Dollars in circulation.

But how is this money injected into the system? Well it’s lent into existence. You see while you and I have to go to a bank to borrow money the bankers can just ask the Federal Reserve to print some money for them. They pay interest on this money, but it’s much lower than the interest we have to pay on our loans and mortgages. Not only is this system unfair it’s also bad for the economy because the more money there is in existence the less our money is worth. People think inflation is just something that happens naturally. It’s not. The reason we have inflation is because the central bank is printing all this money.

Let’s suppose for a moment that Ayn Rand was a champion of libertarianism. Alan Greenspan, a follower of that great libertarian Ayn Rand, should have set interest rates to infinity to stop all this money being printed. That’s what Milton Friedman would have done. But no. Alan Greenspan brought in super-low interest rates. When money gets printed by central banks it reduces the value of our money. So rather than setup the conditions for a thriving, long lasting, capitalist economy, he effectively sold our money to the banks for ludicrously low prices. That’s what caused the financial crash.

Why did he do it? Because that’s what his banker friends wanted. He was doing what Ayn Rand always encouraged people to do: Pursue their own rational self interest.

Randian heroes

In her journals she writes that William Edward Hickman

“is born with a wonderful, free, light consciousness—[resulting from] the absolute lack of social instinct or herd feeling. He does not understand, because he has no organ for understanding, the necessity, meaning, or importance of other people.”

Hickman was a torturer and serial killer. According to author and biographer Michael Prescott, in 1928, Hickman is one of the most notorious criminals in America, a forger, armed robber, child kidnapper, and multiple murderer.

Is this the lesson that Ayn Rand wnated to teach the world? Did she admire sociopaths and want the world to become more sociopathic?

Here’s where it gets crazy

First of all let me just say that I don’t believe in the supernatural. I don’t believe in God, I don’t believe in the devil and I don’t believe in magic. I also want you to understand that many people in the group I’m about to talk about are actually very nice people. They give to charities, they discuss philosophy and they don’t take themselves too seriously. Just because someone is a Satan worshiper doesn’t mean they’re a bad person.

Over the past few years, Anton LaVey and his book The Satanic Bible has grown increasingly popular, selling thousands of new copies. Many satanists base their philosophy on Ayn Rand. Objectivism, the philosophy of Ayn Rand, is an acknowledged source for some of the Satanic philosophy as outlined in The Satanic Bible by Anton LaVey.

But some Satan worshipers are not nice people. They may be in the minority, but they do exist. Yes that’s right: There are actually people out there who worship Satan and kill people for fun. Even among hard-core conspiracy theorists the idea that these people exist is generally dismissed as being ludicrous. They think that people who talk about evil satanic groups are dis-info agents trying to make conspiracy theorists look bad.

The Order of Nine Angles (ONA; O9A)

“represent a dangerous and extreme form of

Satanism”

-Per Faxneld: Post-Satanism, Left Hand Paths, and Beyond in Per Faxneld & Jesper Petersen (eds)The Devil’s Party: Satanism in Modernity, Oxford University Press (2012)

The ONA’s writings condone and encourage human sacrifice. According to the ONA this “culling” serves not just a social Darwinian purpose, but is also connected to the promotion of a new Aeon:

“The change that is necessary means that there must be a culling, or many cullings, which remove the worthless and those detrimental to further evolution.”

– Long, Anton. “Darkness Is My Friend: The Meaning of the Sinister Way”, 1996

I know someone who was involved with Satanic discussion forums. Members of The600Club.com approvingly quote material such as the work of Kurt Saxon:

“Our country is swamped with morons and degenerates. The Mexican border has become a huge anus through which Mexico excretes its waste matter. There are at least eight million Muslims here, all too many of which, feel commanded to destroy us… Overpopulation and down-breeding has reduced the level of reasoning of the average human to that of a baboon. A terrible culling is due, or overdue, of more than 50% of our population who will die of starvation, disease and/or violence… People who were born to no purpose and are a social liability, at best, will be culled as a matter course. Those who accept them as simply a part of the scheme of things, will be a part of an indiscriminate culling which will carry off both worthwhile and worthless… No improvement is possible, short of the massive culling. The culling will remove the parasites, predators, perverts and also the Liberals, who not only allowed, but encouraged society’s dregs to survive and multiply.”

Now the question we have to ask is: In what way might these satanists achieve such a “culling” and is former FBI agent Ted Gunderson correct in saying that these people have infiltrated the CIA?

666

“666 is the Kabbalistic square of the Sun. 666 is the all-important solar chakra. The true meaning of the “Temple of Solomon” is the TEMPLE OF THE SUN. “Sol” “Om” and “On” are all words for the Sun. “Sol” is the Latin word for the Sun and is close to the English word “soul.” “Om” is a name given by the Hindus to the Spiritual Sun and “On” is an Egyptian word for Sun. The symbolism of the Temple of Solomon was stolen by the Jews and made into a fictitious character, as with the fictitous nazarene and nearly everything in the Judeo/Christian Bible.”

A Foiled Plot?

This question was put to an ex CIA agent known as Jim Garrow:

Q: “Were we almost subject to a nuclear false flag here in the states?” A: “Well yes very much yea … in fact two of the devices are still out there. Two of the nuclear weapons. Keep in mind three people saved the United States. Two generals and an admiral. And what they had done was put together the picture of what was going on.” “…The nuclear warheads to be moved as well. The collars which would have fixed them to short range missiles. That was the other thing they were realizing “Wait a minute: These are going to places where if it’s an 800 mile radius that these rockets are able to launch within and you’re targeting within an 800 mile radius… wait a minute! That’s the heartland of the United States! Something is wrong here. So they knew just by virtue of the orders that were coming around and going back to them that something was really really out of whack…” “…If these devices had been allowed to go off… these were EMP capable devices. They were also timed in what was going on with the switch of polarity of the sun…” “You would be dealing with a massive EMP which would have wiped out all communications, all transportation, all computation, all electrical grids, around the nation and the lower part of Canada, the populace area of Canada as well. So this was a major thing. These guys stepped up and said no. And they stopped it. We have to tip our hats to them and say thank you thank you thank you for doing the brave thing that you did. On behalf of the American people.”

Now check this out: Arch Crawford, a top expert Financial Analyst whose been making predictions about what will happen in the markets since the 1960’s predicted a solar killshot possibly happening on the 13th of November.

Now of course the “solar killshot” never happened. Plus, this guy claims to be able to predict the markets using astrology which is something I don’t believe in. But what’s interesting is that this rumor coincided with another rumor piggybacked on the Edward Snowden revelations.

“MOSCOW, Russia – Edward Snowden, hacker­ fugitive and former National Security Agency (NSA) contractor, revealed Tuesday that a series of solar flares is set to occur in October, killing hundreds of millions of people. Documents provided by Snowden prove that, as of 14 years ago, Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) remote viewers knew that the event was inevitable. Ever since, the world’s governments have quietly been trying to prepare for the sweeping global famine to result.”



So as you can see: A pattern is emerging. The EMP or nuclear devices were set to go off when the polarity of the sun inverted.

Of course it could all be a coincidence. I just think it’s strange that these rumors circulating all relate to solar activity. So what if there’s no such thing as remote viewing? There must be a reason for these rumors to be put out there. Maybe the people spreading the rumors have some kind of insider knowledge about a satanic plot?

In Conclusion

So Ayn Rand was a very interesting person. She has many followers, some of them libertarians, some of them important people who run things like the Federal Reserve, some moderate satanists, and some killers and extreme satanists who want to watch the world burn. But the underlying theme is the idea of rational self interest. The idea that the morally right thing to do is put your happiness first. This is not necessarily a bad thing. Sometimes people spend so much time trying to make everyone else happy that they forget to make time for themselves. Sometimes politicians try to make us more generous but actually make things worse by damaging the economy so much that everyone is worse off. But there needs to be a balance. When this idea is taken to the extreme people are capable of doing some really crazy things. It can be a way for sociopaths to justify their actions or discover other sociopaths who think like they do.

Sleep tight!
