Ayn Rand's philosophy of Objectivism

[Excited Penguin]

I think I should add here, in case it wasn't clear enough, that those of us that have consciences, can't accept any situation at any given moment where you fuck over innocent people for your own gains. That's contradictory in itself, since if you care for other people(even other than your own family and friends) your happiness would depend on the happiness of others. I think of conscience like a built-in fear sometimes, and the rebel in me dissaproves, but I do have it and am very much driven by it, except for the times where I feel cheated and taken advantage of, then my sympathy and goodwill quickly turn to vindictiviness and hatred, but even that only happens if I'm taken by surprise and can't make sense of the other person(s) own circumstances and what got them to this point. So there's definitely a battle between instinct and rationality at play here.
