Just for the record, I’ve been in the Objectivist community for only a few years, but the number of assholes online is comparable to any other online community, and I’ve never met anybody in real-life Objectivist meet-ups or reading groups who was an asshole.
Anyway, like I’ve said, I just came here to endorse the philosophy and recommend reading for those who would like to know more. I didn’t come to this thread to advocate or defend the philosophy, and especially not the community. If you want to start a separate discussion on the merits of the philosophy itself, I’d be happy to join in on that.
