File talk:Objectivist1.jpg

This file should not be the image associated with symbolizing objectivism. Just because Ayn Rand uses Atlas as a motif in her work doesn't necessitate it's use as a symbol for a philosophical viewpoint. There shouldn't be an image here unless a caption is inserted to explain it's relevance to the idea, see

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Determinism or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fallibilism or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatalism

If it doesn't have a caption that in an objective way explains the relevance of the piece to the idea, it should be removed...immediately.


 * It's especially odd considering the fact that the actual statue is genuflecting to St. Patrick's Cathedral across the street, and some people think that was the sculptor's intention. Carlo (talk) 13:24, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
 * It's even worse since there's no evidence whatsoever that the sculptor supported these views. Frankly, typical objectivist BS of claiming something as objectivist when it has nothing to do with that childish narcissism. oknazevad (talk) 08:38, 17 November 2016 (UTC)
