But summerqueen's idea about how great humanity is doing these days imply an agreement with Rand, since many of the innovators in the world are just the type of people that Rand describes positively, and most of us view negatively.
I sense a SJW. "Who are YOU to tell anyone how to live their life?" That I'm giving the exact kind of reasons that support your original post in this thread is much less satisfying than the chance to *snap* your fingers, waggle your head disapprovingly, and rush to a lady's aid, eh?
I'd wager Thump doesn't think I give a single flying fuck about support from any of y'all, nor does he think I need it, and thus his answer is entirely because of his own disagreement with your condescending opinion.
Ya know, I keep trying to take this back to the OP. I'm disagreeing with Rand, on the basis that people like her (or the people she depicts) aren't fully living out their lives as human beings. Do you actually disagree with this, or are you just pissy because someone is actually trying to define what "quality of life" means?
