How is this mindset any different than the philosophies laid out in "It Takes A Village" by Hillary Clinton? And what exactly is a "racial goal"? I'm a white boy and frankly, I can give a crap less about what other honkies' goals are.
Individualism is also opposed to the view that tradition, religion, or any other form of external moral standard should be used to limit an individual's choice of actions.
You're wrong again. I'm a Christian (yes, I realize that you have an asinine view that libertarians can't be Christians, even though I strongly suspect that I attend a more fundamentalist church than you), and my religious beliefs limit my personal choice of actions. I try to be a good person because God commands it. I take Him a bit more serious than the government.
A matter of degrees. I prefer to focus on individual rights, keeping the the community in mind. Hillary focuses on the community with individual rights secondary.
"And what exactly is a "racial goal"?"
Ask Germany in the 30's. Or Japan. No room for the individual in those societies at that time.
"I'm a Christian"
I got that already. I was describing an individualist.
Before you said you were a libertarian and took offense. Now what? Are you saying you're now an Individualist, so you're taking offense again?
Wait! I got it! There's no room for religion in Objectivism. Now you can claim to be an Objectivist and take offense at that!
C'mon. Lecture me on how good a Christian you are -- better than me, no doubt. Then tell me you're a libertarian (or an Individualist or an Objectivist) and that you don't see a conflict at all between those philosophies and your faith.
Fine. Whatever.
