If that's the take away they got from the book then god help us all because they're idiots.

The book doesn't demonize communism nor does it idealize entrepreneurs.

In fact the variable hidden Utopia the intellectual elite made to hide themselves in the world was a perfect example of Communism in and of itself.

And a variable waste land they left behind was a perfect example of capitalism run rampant.

You're entitled to your opinion, it's wrong of course.

You're like those idiots on steam that give great games bad reviews because the game crashed once with outdated drivers.

No it's not. You're just, and I mean this in the most clinical way possible with out insult, stupid.

It is amazing how you people on this platform don't like atlas shrugged not knowing anything about it at all.

Right wing nut jobs highjacked the book thinking it's pro capitalism when it isn't. Seriously read the damned book! You'll be surprised.

I think what people generally want is not reddit. The mods in reddit have almost no accountability from admin.

Oftentimes comments are removed just because a mod doesn't agree or like the content.

I was banned from r/Ukraine simply for saying we shouldn't demonize the entire population of Russia for the actions of their government. I later argued with the mod through their "arbitration process" and he would not unban me. (What really hurt is that I'm Ukrainian. It was an improvement sub for me)

No one wants that! Please don't let that happen here!

Please! For the love of God! Get rid of tipping!

I hate tipping! As the consumer I should not be responsible for proving a living wage for someone else's employees!

Let's for a second take stock of what's happening here.

The ad revenue is falling short of the projected prediction of what it was supposed to be. As in the profit from ad revenue did not reach that arbitrary number.

Reddit is still grossly profitable.

This is the same kind of headline that says Facebook lost 11 bagillion dollars but in reality they didn't lose a dime they just didn't make as much as they wanted to.

Lemmy is getting better and better at an exponential rate. I still use Reddit but eventually I expect to fully be on Lemmy.
