Wow.

The latest update in The Fountainhead Filibuster, an alternate history about Ayn Rand and her Objectivist disciples taking over the Katanga region in Congo in the 1960s, is seriously scary. I can imagine Objectivism getting militant like that, and it probably explains why the system of thought espoused by Atlas Shrugged was so disturbing to me. Mostly, though, I must admit it's just cathartic to beat up on Rand and her ideas. Thanks [livejournal.com profile] lavanyasix for recommending this TL to me!

The Fountainhead Filibuster: Tales from Objectivist Katanga Chapter Guide - See this page to read just the actual updates. The latest update seems mislinked, though.
The full thread, which has more comments than updates but I found the comments fun, too.
