The Key to the Mental Illness of Our Politics


Ayn Rand, on her hero, 
wrote that he “has learned long ago, with his first consciousness, two things which dominate his entire attitude toward life: his own superiority and the utter worthlessness of the world. He knows what he wants and what he thinks. He needs no other reasons, standards or considerations. His complete selfishness is as natural to him as breathing.” 

The Rand family were devastated by the beginning of communism which used a concern for all as their reason yet focused from the ego of strong leaders. When Rand arrived in America she struggled to fit into a misogynistic world which didn't recognize her abilities.

The current situation in America comes out of trauma. The brutality of WWII on top of colonial violence. White Supremacy is the religion of a society that has lost its way. It seeks to punish and beat up, rape and demean the earth by destroying as much natural life as possible.

This is a kind way of saying we have all gone mad, grabbing as much of our broken toys as we can because we have been sent away from ourselves.

The rich and famous strongmen on our planet have learned how to complete the rape by making it illegal to love and nurture.

The military and police force are training men to dissociate from their feelings and their pain.
