The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand has made me question my existence and the function of society ever since I started reading it two weeks ago. It has absolutely consumed my every thought, making me go crazy with cynical thoughts of corruption, capitalism, and our ideas of so-called selflessness. Maybe…

That’s cute. She wrote that Ayn Rand’s novels are anti-capitalism. That is like saying the Communist Manifesto is anti-communist.

I know Ayn Rand is known for her radical and anti-capitalist novels…” Oh my god, I can’t even. This shows just how differently people can interpret things based on their own ideals. I wonder what OP’s opinions on Roark are. Does she think Roark is fighting against capitalism? *confused*

Woah, guys, don’t get your panties in a bunch. I wrote this really late last night and meant to say anti-communist and didn’t realize it until now. Excuse me for the typo…didn’t know it would stir up so much confusion…
