D&D and the Battle of Five Philosophers
Posted by Eudaimonist 10 years ago to Philosophy
This is the first time I have seen Rand in this humorous philosophy comic. While the writer damns her with faint praise, on the plus side: 1) she's regarded as a philosopher in the comic in equal standing to the rest, 2) Nietszche is the buffoon instead of her, and her views are presented with reasonable accuracy. It's a step forward.
