not to say propaganda can't be a fun read, but Ayn Rand is especially horrid
Ideas are the motivators of life
Oh god

@AdorableStormtrooper nice ad hom
the painful truth is
taxes are gonna have to go back up if we want this deficit to go away
Also apparently Guy Fieri has the same birth date as me.
Heinlein and Hayek > Rand tbh fam
This rap... is terrible.
Who thought it was badass.
@Beemann what his epistemology?
Sorry?
his epistemology?
@Dusty Morgan that is awful
They're both within the same overall circle as Rand wrt political theory, which is the comparison I'm using for quality
@Dusty Morgan well, actually the lines before the beat came in were better
@Beemann did they have a defined philosophy or just politics
I agree...
It is when the music came, everything felt jumbled.
With no meaning behind it.
how man should live is more important than what system should man live in
They were trying to throw too many things together in that scene.
Hayek is all about enlightenment values, Heinlein was a libertarian who liked to play around with ideas and ultimately stressed civic duty as a key component of liberal society in SST
@Beemann which values
@Dusty Morgan Well, I think they liked the gimmick, but weren't willing to commit to the relationship damage and discontinuity an actual no-holds-barred rap battle would inevitably provoke.
hes seems pretty shallow focusing on the surface which is politics
Free speech, free markets, minimal government interference, typically borne our as a republic
thats not the western values
Politics are the application of philosophical values
yes
Can't believe I'm applying this level of analysis to what appears to be a lighthearted cartoon about adolescent pseudozombies
