Mid-20th century pop-philosopher who first propounded
objectivism in a set of rather poorly written cult novels of dubious quality. Her philosophy is founded on unremarkable restatements of the obvious, prizing material achievement, self-centered pride, and unfettered commerce as virtues over love, humility, generosity, and faithfulness. Followers of
objectivism, called randroids, tend to be a rude, selfish,
condescending bunch, intolerant of anything that does not perfectly match their ultra-naturalist, laissez-faire dogmatism.
"A=A, oh, yes, A=A," the randroid muttered again and again, softly, obsessively, as he cut out heart-shaped
pictures of Ayn Rand from a magazine for his
objectivist collage showing her to be the pinnacle of human
evolution.
