Existence Is Identity, Consciousness Is Identification

Ayn Rand Quote: "What is greatness? I will answer: it is ...

From John Galt in Atlas Shrugged:

“Whatever you choose to consider, be it an object, an attribute or an action, the law of identity remains the same. A leaf cannot be a stone at the same time, it cannot be all red and all green at the same time, it cannot freeze and burn at the same time. A is A. Or, if you wish it stated in simpler language: You cannot have your cake and eat it, too.

Are you seeking to know what is wrong with the world? All the disasters that have wrecked your world, came from your leaders’ attempt to evade the fact that A is A. All the secret evil you dread to face within you and all the pain that you have ever endured, came from your own attempt to evade the fact that A is A. The purpose of those who taught you to evade it, was to make you forget that Man is Man.”

A simple concept but let’s apply it to our “leaders”.

  1. The 2020 presidential election was fraudulent. The facts cannot be evaded unless you suppress the truth. The evidence showing A does not equal A as actual votes are counted/miscounted does not matter according to our leaders.
  2. There are two genders. As stated above, a leaf cannot be a stone at the same time. According to our leaders, a man can be a woman (or a woman can be a man) at the same time.
  3. We have to spend money in order not to go bankrupt.
  4. Antifa and BLM are not violent or destructive even though the evidence is irrefutable.
  5. Our leaders must restrict the right to defend ourselves in order to keep us safe.
  6. We must take a vaccine that has not be approved by the FDA, may kill us, may not work and still wear a mask.

From John Galt in Atlas Shrugged:

“Be it a highwayman who confronts a traveler with the ultimatum: ‘Your money or your life,’ or a politician who confronts a country with the ultimatum: ‘Your children’s education or your life,’ the meaning of that ultimatum is: ‘Your mind or your life ‘ – and neither is possible to man without the other.

If there are degrees of evil, it is hard to say who is the contemptible: the brute who assume the right to force the mind of others or the moral degenerate who grants to others the right to force his mind.”

Our leaders want to erase our existence by removing our reason and canceling our culture. It is up to each individual to decide whether he wants to exist. And if you want to exist, the choice is clear on which path needs to be taken.

“Atlas Shrugged” should be mandatory reading.

Odd timing, I am listening to Atlas Shrugged for the about the 3rd time, started a week or so ago. Ayn Rand was just about a prophet -- and it should be required reading.
