The Death of Objectivism

Posted by JRMR 10 years, 3 months ago to Philosophy

One thing to take note of: Don't trash on BioShock if you do not know it's story or do not know really what it is. Find out for yourself before you attack it or even play it for yourself.

With that said what are your thoughts on this piece?

Well, it's pretty obvious the author didn't care much for AS or AR.

Well, I read quickly through it, and wanted to blog something like: How will my grade be determined? Will I receive recognition if I do well, or will my grade be the same as everyone else's: "Passing"
Or even more sinister, must I exalt mediocrity to even pass the course?

Whoever heard of UMW anyway?

The real world is not a game.

  True, but the real world is also not a novel... :P

We had a pretty good thread on an Atlas Shrugged role playing game a couple of months ago, and Bioshock was mentioned multiple times. JRMR's post is a worthwhile read.
