It is a complete deconstruction of Randites. And I write this as someone who has read every Ayn Rand novel and owns Objectivist books. But since my Ayn Rand acolyte days I have become much more pragmatic (read "liberal").
Harpers: Joe Wilson, Neoconfederate
After reading these articles a line from Woody Allen's 'Manhattan' came to mind:
Isaac: Has anybody read that nazis are going to march in New Jersey, you know? I read this in the newspaper, we should go down there, get some guys together, you know, get some bricks and baseball bats and really explain things to them."
Man: "There was this devastating satirical piece on that on the op-ed
page of the Times. It is devastating."
Isaac: "Well, well, a satirical piece in the Times is one thing, but
bricks and baseball bats really gets right to the
point."
Woman: "Oh, but really biting satire is always better than physical
force."
Isaac: "No, physical force is always better with nazis. Cos
it's hard to satirize a guy with shiny boots."
