To the author:n

In tonight's episode, a nameless character makes a point
of saying his wife's name is Dagny, even though it is completely
irrelevant to the story. Which leaves me to wonder . . . is there a
closet conservative on the writing staff ? ? ? could it be . . . a
Mystery Writer ? ? ?

It is great people are even talking about Ayn Rand. I guess when her
books have been selling by the thousands for decades, even the
cultural left can’t ignore her.

I haven't watched the Simpsons in about 8 years, since I saw another
in an endless line of seething anti-Christian episodes.

I'm
very surprised that the ultra-Liberals at this show were even able to
understand a Conservative belief, and it's ensuing Liberal hypocrisy.

I watched the episode and got as far as the requisite insult to
conservatives, and changed the channel.

To paraphrase Ayn Rand from her Romantic Manifesto, you
see art the way you see man and existence. And how does the
Leftist/collectivist see man and existence?

Uniform,
equalized with the ultimate goal of nothing more than functionality.
This is a perfect demonstration of Rand's idea.

the funny thing is that all of the vignettes were supposed
to be parodies. this seems more like an homage. i remember way back
they had an episode where Maggie went to pre-school. The school was
called 'A is A'.

Fun Fact: During the opening sequence,
the cash register at the grocery store blinked 'NRA4EVR' Although
they redid the opening this year.

Huffington Post had a blurb about the episode. But they didn't touch
the philosophy. All they said was that "Rand has never been cuter.
Then again, Rand has never been cute." Keep in mind, this episode was
dedicated to stories about strong independent women. Which leads me
to wonder which side of the spectrum Feminism truly resides. />
It's hard to disagree with Rand's message of freedom and
individualism but deep down that's what it takes to be a leftist. As
demonstrated in Atlas, Leftists tend to disguise their beliefs using
different terms and phrases to fool themselves as to their true
meaning and intent.

I hope everyone enjoys the clip. You
can't get it on Youtube anymore.

All Leftists put social value above individual value.
What is the value of this product or building to society? This
ideology is inevitably taken to further a extreme through eugenics;
what is this individual's value to society?

Or we can be
individualists and make those crucial decisions for ourselves. The
problem with that, as previously stated, is that some people will
shine brighter than others. This leads to jealousy or 'alienation' as
Marx theorized. Leftists feel society must be united and equal like a
lawn. For "when a blade of grass rises above the others, do we
applaud it? No, we cut it down." And to quote Maggie, "YOU SUCK."

Leftism is rooted in jealousy and revenge. So, yes this
is an appropriate demonstration of the ideological spectrum.

The Fountainhead is the bible for right wing losers?
That's ridiculous. Atlas Shrugged is.

I saw the whole episode. Perhaps Lisa was merely staying
true to her character. Although the writing hasn't been that good
over the past few years. Mainly because the original writers are long
gone.

One of my favorite lines from the old days was when
the kids were using their grandfather's name to write episodes of
itchy and scratchy. they asked him, 'didn't you wonder why you were
getting checks in the mail?' he said, 'i thought it was because the
democrats are in power.' Those were good days.

Maggie is an American Woman.....
