The Producer

I would like to know more about the people here. What have you done and what do you plan to do. Producer isn't a light title to carry.

Myself I live in a po-dunk little town that is trying to make it with the major metropolitan areas. They believe youth will pave the way, as far as I can tell our "youth" haven't done a damn thing. They are the people that sit in the meetings with the great ideas and do nothing about it.

I want to create events, they probably won't put us on the map but they will be events. No donating for a cause but people going out spending their hard earned evening for a memorable evening.

    Thanks guys, and yes I am working on a certification in event and wedding planning (ugh). I am also looking to start working on my bookkeeping certification, which is a little more practical in paying the bills.

    translation: You don't need premission to take a dump in someone else's living room.

    That's Ayn Rand in a nutshell.

    I do not need nor does anyone else need permission to be greedy and self-serving. Nobody does in a free society. So much for your premise for being here. You can go now you are not needed.

    I do not care for your explanations they are worthless, that is they have no value to me. What does have value is your absence as you are a distraction to others.

    You are living in denial, if you think the second I put the name out there, Randites aren't going to make trouble for me.

    There aren't that many of us out there. It shouldn't be that difficult to put in a day or so and figure it out. Do the work, just as Rand advise you. That is unless you are a hypocrite.

    I'm in a chat room filled with rigid ideologues who aren't interested in discussing issues. You're here to hear the sound of each others voices, and to reassure each other that Rand's philosophy grants you permission to be greedy self-serving bastards.

    It doesn't, and I'm here to explain why. You can either open yourself up to that glimpse of truth and reality, or you can bury yourself in Rand's hyper-cartoonish fantasies. Your choice.

    Money is made when it is changing hands. Motersports people are big spenders. Not many towns welcome this activity. I am a CNC machinist. Manufacturing products is not glamoris but it can be a money maker. Sportsmen tend to spend. Food, fuel, supplies, Do you mind telling us the name of your town?

    A cult in what way? Dangerous? To whom? If there is power in being our brother keeper what danger could a bunch of self centered objectivists be.

    The scary part is that either:
    1. You're so steeped in your own delusions that you can't identify your misunderstandings of reality
    or
    2. You're so committed to trolling that you refuse to acknowledge anything that knocks you off script.

    Either way, you've turned yourself into a talking wall because of your dishonesty. You talk at people and not with them, and that contradicts all your collectivist premises that you supposedly believe in.

    The Straw Man fallacy is committed when a person simply ignores a person's actual position and substitutes a distorted, exaggerated or misrepresented version of that position.

    I have done none of that. I have done nothing to misrepresent your position. Rather, I have presented my own, and my position is that the vast majority of those hanging out in this room are defending the actions and thoughts of a deeply disturbed woman who confused pre cold-war Russia with modern day America. Apples and oranges, my friend.

    As for the "cult" thing, these two definitions seem to mirror the definitions in most dictionaries:

    1) A system of religious veneration and devotion directed toward a particular figure or object.

    2) A relatively small group of people having religious beliefs or practices regarded by others as strange or sinister.

    The shoe seems to fit quite well.

    Please refer to this:

    I am a member of no group and participate in no rituals. I don't venerate Ayn Rand, I agree with her assertions and respect her for identifying them.

    You also have no idea what I do in my free time, so I'd appreciate you keep unfounded claims out of your strawmanning.

    you sit around in your spare time and quote the inane ramblings of a long dead psychotic anti-social drug addict. I'm sorry to be the one to inform you you are in a cult. lol.

    As I stated elsewhere, there is no cult of objectivism, and the objectivists who would be most likely to be labeled as cultists steer clear of this site and the movies.

    I'm not trying to slander anybody. I am however reporting a cult as a cult. A dangerous cult at that.
