The wisdom of Ayn Rand regarding altruism
It is very tempting to send money to support the Canadian truckers and other people/causes. With the crackdown by the Canadian finance minister and crowdfunding companies and the now ubiquitous equating of such donations to "supporting terrorism", now, more than ever, Ayn Rand's persistent bashing of altruism is more relevant than ever.

In many cases, funding a worthy cause is preferable to having a government making that decision for you.
Protest causes are another story but haven't been a big problem until recently.
That being said, I hope that every single one of these people remove their money from the banks. Let's collapse a few and see how fast Trudeau's money train derails.
Projection is indeed the name of their game.
Ayn Rand was truly amazing in her ability to tell an interesting and exciting story and educate the reader at the same time . She very clearly understood the damage altruism does to the productivity of a human and particularly a large group. I also have been awed by Milton Friedman , Norman Dodd , Ronald Reagan, G. Edward Griffith Rush Limbaugh and many participants in this very Gulch , with their ability to see the forest fire through the trees 🌲 🌳 so to speak. Poor analogy, but you know what I mean.
I am curious if anyone thinks Ayn went into the propaganda or brainwashing aspect of The kakistocrats? One of the mysteries that has been unraveling is the brainwashing. It’s effects can’t be overstated in my opinion. I am surprised how many time a trusted source lies and is still a trusted source. Never are the motivation of their lies to be examined.. Covid19 revealed that. It came from a spoiled bat meal at the “Wet Market”. Ha ,who ever heard of a wet market before , but spoke of atvevery water cooler . Then the next lie and the next. From my point of view , the narcissistic trait that we witness constantly from the Cabals minions is projection. Russia collusion was projection , the” insurrection”on J6 the same. Psychopathical liars that they are , so now we see them attacking “mis-information”. The media , Education , Hollywood , even Libraries have been steadily and well practiced lying to us and giving misinformation.Over and over and over. They know if you Take away a persons confidence and likely they will go with the crowd vs their own reasoning. People fear Bullying , in fact , though they claim and have convinced people they are the champion of the oppressed. The way they twist distort and pervert reality or definitions , oppressed: means a criminal who has been caught and sentenced. Heaven forbid that man is rehabilitated and produces pillows , jobs and a good nights sleep. Lol.
With that said thanks for the post and best of all The Qreat Awakening continues and the evil enemy is becoming fully exposed. Truth over propaganda and a well armed populace.
