Aha! "Social darwinism" has finally hit a dictionary and it's just what I thought it would be -- another mad-dog-attack name against Objectivist politics -- "social Darwinism" means anti-Capitalism.
You were right about that in post 73. Rand, being all for Capitalism, would detest social darwinism. .
But that calls up another of your post 73 statements ...
Rand's epistomology (sic) of Reason (not to mention her own novels) would suggest to us that the real "absolute" is closer to Social Darwinism than anything else
... for question.
What does that statement mean? What "absolute" are you talking about?
Are you not hiding behind ... meaningless ambiguities ... in most eveything you write?
LOL!!!! So you reject the dictionary definition -- I've discovered that this is not an atypical response for Randians, BTW, and I fully expected you to yelp about it.
Seeing as you apparently don't like it, I think you've assumed the burden to tell us what, precisely, is wrong with Mr. Webster's definition of Social Darwinism.
Had you actually paid attention to my post, you'd have noted that I did define the terms -- well, as best I could, given that I'm trying to operate within the constraints defined by Ms. Rand.
And what am I to conclude from your dismissal of logic as "meaningless ambiguity?" If you don't understand what I'm saying, then ask for clarification. Your utter silence on the points I've made suggests that you do understand what I've said, and cannot find a proper response.
