Yep. A God-fearing nation that stands for freedom simply cannot be allowed if they want to have total control and power over everyone under one globalist system.
That world is dead. You use to see commercials (Coke/Pepsi) where people were coming together and showing love of America. Now the Democrats stop teaching history, indoctrinate our youth, and destroy everything they touch. Democrats hate America.
Remember when the TDS Leftists attacked that author Ayn Rand and then things started happening that had conservatives bringing up the concept having a dialogue and forming business partnerships. Meanwhile TDS was on unemployment posting on Facebook about watching Netflix hand maids tail. A production rush for TDS people.
A show that took the self made woman from mad men and put her back in chains
I remember when I used to browse 4chan there were sometimes threads where people asked each other what their favorite books were. The threads were usually a circlejerk over how enlightened anons were for reading this book and that, and there were no wrong answers...until someone mentioned an Ayn Rand book...
...and every single time it happened, the knives came out and the civil discourse turned into a hate fest over Ayn Rand's books.
Alice O'Connor (born Alisa Zinovyevna Rosenbaum;[c] February 2 [O.S. January 20], 1905 – March 6, 1982), better known by her pen name Ayn Rand (/aɪn/), was a Russian-born American writer and philosopher.[3] She is known for her fiction and for developing a philosophical system she named Objectivism. Born and educated in Russia, she moved to the United States in 1926. After two early novels that were initially unsuccessful and two Broadway plays, she achieved fame with her 1943 novel, The Fountainhead. In 1957, Rand published her best-selling work, the novel Atlas Shrugged. Afterward, until her death in 1982, she turned to non-fiction to promote her philosophy, publishing her own periodicals and releasing several collections of essays.
that was exactly the point, is the person capable of having a dialogue or are they only parroting what others say. Can they form alliances, maintain business margins Or are they destined only to be relegated as consumers. Mouth breathers who provide nothing on value. They have become the majority and they have been given multiple platforms to speak their nonsense of attacking people and not the arguments. To the point if somebody is attacking the person and not the argument, they have nothing of value to provide.
People are granted their individual freedom to pursue and engage, what they choose to do with their time says everything about them. How they handle themselves in a conversation states what they are about.
it's not just between two people, its them it's everyone else in the room
Question from someone who's never read anything by that author:
her style, described as developing characters over hundreds of pages before anything gets going, is off putting to me. Are there non-fiction works she's written that convey the same essence of Atlas Shrugged?
It’s a pretty entertaining book and I’m definitely not a book person. But it’s very wordy. Like very wordy. I listened to it… it’s like 53 hours long. Also the suspension of disbelief is pretty small just one part of the book really the rest just feels natural
Her philosophy was flawed (though some aspects are very true). She loved to use 50 words when 5 would do, belabor points, and had little concept of the purpose of life. There is but one Natural Law, and she violated it in her personal life and in her writings.
The Audiobook read by Scott Brick is really well done. His narration makes the few tedious parts more tolerable. I used to listen to is every year, starting on April 15th… you know, as a reminder.
All your petty deeds will become pointless when Atom returns, when the Great Divide cleanses this world and all in it. He is the bringer of light, the Great Divider. He is the infinite worlds within all of us. His Glow will spread, it will illuminate, and it will birth infinite worlds from within us all. In time, it will make sense. In the moment when you are Divided, you will understand.

So you're saying they not only caused an explosion but it was so big it set off the Yellowstone supervolcano, and we're all going to be buried in feet if hot Ash like Pompeii.
No background here in nuclear physics nor technology, but I feel like if a cooling pool is generating steam then there must be something wrong. Sort of like if my rad blows a hose..

Conservatives move to Texas, invade Texas with illegals. Conservatives move to Florida, deny them disaster assistance.
Conservatives move to Georgia, cheat them out of an election and kill the Governor'a future son-in-law.
Conservatives move to Idaho, nuke Idaho.
Don't worry it wasn't a black super genius hired for his black skin that kicked the power off by mistake and didn't know what to do. They hire on merit, not skin.
The past few years have felt like the final chapters of atlas shrugged
It was supposed to be a warning, not an instruction manual...
It was in fact an instruction manual, for what was obviously happening a half century before it was published and would obviously be our fate.
But nit enough highly productive people are willing to abandon the system, unlike the instructions.
Hank Rearden was reluctant, too. It's tough to abandon everything. But many have.
Clown world. The UniParty wants to end America as we know it.
Yep. A God-fearing nation that stands for freedom simply cannot be allowed if they want to have total control and power over everyone under one globalist system.
Tbf that is not a bad thing in itself.
The bad thing is they want to replace it with something worse, not return it to greatness.
Returning it to greatness is the opposite of ending America.
Your statement is very confused.
Returning it to greatness requires ending 'America as we know it'.
I guess if you never knew a pre-911 world, that's true. I remember the bicentennial like it was yesterday.
That world is dead. You use to see commercials (Coke/Pepsi) where people were coming together and showing love of America. Now the Democrats stop teaching history, indoctrinate our youth, and destroy everything they touch. Democrats hate America.
Fair. That nonsense all needs to end.
If there was someplace where the panopticon couldn't find us I'd go today, but the planet is a prison
The mind is the biggest prison. People become prisoners in their own minds.
Jesus came to set you free, friend.
Unfortunately people don't realize it's not the truth that sets us free; "ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free."
We have to KNOW the Truth first. This is why there's such an emphasis on propaganda ...
It's also why Christians are a first-target for globalists.
They don't take issue with Muslims, Hindus, Jews, Buddists, etc.
Because the coverup of the truth is their target.

"Get your ass to Mars!"
US is freedom's last stand. These colors don't run.
Remember that libtards have called it freedumbs.

I'm not a Rand fan, but she did have some valuable points - like Libertarians generally.
that was exactly the point, is the person capable of having a dialogue or are they only parroting what others say. Can they form alliances, maintain business margins Or are they destined only to be relegated as consumers. Mouth breathers who provide nothing on value. They have become the majority and they have been given multiple platforms to speak their nonsense of attacking people and not the arguments.

Never read it. Have always been on the fence.
It’s a pretty entertaining book and I’m definitely not a book person. But it’s very wordy. Like very wordy. I listened to it… it’s like 53 hours long. Also the suspension of disbelief is pretty small just one part of the book really the rest just feels natural
Christ, I fell asleep halfway through reading YOUR summary.
Her philosophy was flawed (though some aspects are very true). She loved to use 50 words when 5 would do, belabor points, and had little concept of the purpose of life. There is but one Natural Law, and she violated it in her personal life and in her writings.
Getting some pretty strong TL/DR vibes, if I'm huffing what you're spraying in the bag.
She sure was verbose, but I don't think her books would be the same without it.
The Audiobook read by Scott Brick is really well done. His narration makes the few tedious parts more tolerable. I used to listen to is every year, starting on April 15th… you know, as a reminder.
I read "most" of it. I definitely started skimming on the speech when I read it years ago.
The same fence AOC was crying at?
Tough read in parts. That said very prescient book.
Read Fountainhead first, a LONG time ago. Loved it. Read Atlas Shrugged afterwards and found it too X-Men. Too didactic and superhero and sappy.
The Fountainhead has been a guidepost for my life.
And the line everyone quotes as Ad Men:
is ripped off from a scene between Howard Roark and Tooey in the book.
Without the hope, unless you include the shrugging off of this mortal coil and joining God and his angels and forgeting this whole place.
Most people can't even shrug off potato chips.
I've got my chips and dip right here!
Helluva Good French Onion?
Could just be steam from a cooling pool
White smoke means they’ve elected a new nuclear pope, actually.
As a Catholic, I'd prefer a nuclear pope to Francis.
Followers of Atom
Pope Atom the First. Hydre Ojin
Just remember the 6ft distance rule so you don't become a ghoul.

Nuke a gay pope for Christ.
Dammit I'm deleting my comment now haha.

We're only here because anyone sensible can't take government's word about fucking anything anymore.
Weird how many people recognize that the government can't be trusted, but then rush to believe claims from clickbait factories.
So you're saying they not only caused an explosion but it was so big it set off the Yellowstone supervolcano, and we're all going to be buried in feet if hot Ash like Pompeii.
Thanks for the heads up.
Just steam, confirmed.
Whelp, back to hoping for a giant meteor then.
No background here in nuclear physics nor technology, but I feel like if a cooling pool is generating steam then there must be something wrong. Sort of like if my rad blows a hose..
Not really. As someone who does have a background in nuclear physics and technology, it could easily be a release of non-contaminated steam.
This feels kinda alarmist, IMO. Like someone's trying out some new fear porn. Could be wrong.
Fear porn so we can shut down nuclear power plants and have even less available energy.
yeah, feels that way to me too.
Well the powdered Mexican aliens are looking a little stale so it’s time for something new I suppose
Feels like the "what to do in a nuclear blast" PSA Shit that came last year in New York. Mis placed fear... for sure.
I'd be more concerned when it stops releasing steam. Those things are built to release steam so if the steam doesn't work then you got an issue.
Kinda like this:
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=iaSrhxL5y78&pp=ygUgQnVncyBidW5ueSBkcmFnb24gZmlyZSB3ZW50IG91dCA%3D
Not necessarily there are smaller size steam stacks half a mile long at the power company nearby
Looks like steam (and yes there is a definitive visual difference between smoke)
It was just steam.
What are the chances it’s run by a quota hire??
What are the chances it’s an accident
What are the chances it's benign?
Pretty good, actually.
Ssssshhhh, stop it. We’re trying to fear porn here, so don’t go making sense.
He already asked if it was run by a DIEversity hire.
Zero, they have safeguards.
what dis do?
shit, now we leakin!
Call da amberlamps
Well, 7/11 just laid off a bunch of people and curry ain't cheap.
The cause of this white smoke is not yet known, there are no reports of unusual activity at the 890-square-mile site.
Let's hope it's nothing.
They elected the nuclear pope
god dammit you beat me by ten minutes but i didn’t scroll down far enough to see this first

Net neutrality? I bought the farm during y2k!!!
At least we both probably got to enjoy being dissolved by acid rain. It’s those shared experiences that make us a nation.
Climate change took me and my family out long ago.
Lol. Yeah, I agree.. good times!
Or did a Tesla catch on fire in the parking lot?
White smoke? Probably just Hunter visiting the area.
Did they pick a new pope?
No… Why is this stickied?
Alarmist shit, IMO.

Relax, white smoke out of a nuke lab just means they've chosen a new head of safety. They get a cool hat too.
Laughs in steam coming from Hanford Nuclear Site

Um.. Nuclear power plants ALWAYS have white smoke coming from them. It's called STEAM.
The nukes have a new pope!!
Lol do people not know how power plants cool their reactor core?
Looks like the Ecotards hit the motherlode this time.
yea I wouldnt worry too much, its just white smoke.
Now if it was black smoke, I'd be a lot more worried about my bike getting stolen.
Did anyone see the film "E.T."?
Potato Famine incoming.
OMG Dihydrogen Monoxide Release!
The neutrons chose a new Pope.
You mean steam? You know, that stuff that happens when water evaporates?
Will this be the end of liquid water ?
This is "global boiling"
Considering that nuke reactors are commonly cooled using liquid water, it stands to reason that any "white smoke" is probably steam.
It's the annual Company barbaque being held before Winter sets in.
Why have a TV version of "Fallout" when the real thing is happening in real time?
Really OP? Really?
Don't worry it wasn't a black super genius hired for his black skin that kicked the power off by mistake and didn't know what to do. They hire on merit, not skin.
OMG Have we elected a Nuclear Pope?
