The Ayn Rand Foundation is not making an impact. There exist foundations that are making an impact, such as Charlie Kirk, Dennis Prager, Pillow Man, etc. Where the hell is the Ayn Rand Foundation?

When I was an undergrad at U. Wisconsin, there was an evil villain, President Donna Shalala. She instituted an "ethnic studies" requirement for graduation. This was one of the early precursors to CRT. I was with the Anti-Shalala rebels. The rebels were the Objectivist Club. We staged events to oppose Shalala, and we encountered hostility from leftists. It was as glorious as a Yiannopoulos talk.

It was glorious being a rebel. It united free thinkers, like the American Revolutionary War.

Alas, we lost. We had to take the ethnic studies class up the ass.

I found a way to squirm out of it. I took the Jewish studies class, which was part taught by Professor Beck of the mathematics department. Professor Beck is my mathematics guru. The more Beck, the better!

The Ayn Rand Institute at the time rolled like pimps. They sent us speakers for the events of the Objectivist Club, and the Institute paid for the speakers. And the speakers were badass! It was like Rent-A-Trump. It was like calling in an air strike.

One of the speakers was George Riesman, and he was awesome! Delivered a stirring rally. Riesman was a cool dude at the afterparty.

The Ayn Rand Institute is headed by Leonard Piekoff. Ayn Rand designated Piekoff as her intellectual heir, and she willed her assets to Piekoff.

The Ayn Rand Foundation seems to have fallen afoul of a civil war, between Piekoff and Riesman. The civil war seems to have weakened the foundation.

I hung out with Riesman, and I think he's a cool dude.

I haven't hung out with Piekoff, but I listened to his tapes. The Ayn Rand Foundation sent us a package full of Piekoff tapes, an we listened to them, and we thought they were great.

Piekoff understands Ayn Rand.

I'm baffled. I think both Riesman and Piekoff are great. I don't see the need for a civil war.

The head professor of the Jewish studies class was great! On the first day of class he wrote a word on the chalkboard, in giant letters, so that the word occupied the entire chalkboard.

First day of class.

The word was

Rapport

The professor told us that if you want people to tell you stuff, you have to first earn their respect. If people don't respect you, they will lie to you. The professor told us that the source of power of an anthropologist is the ability to gain respect. To gain rapport. Then people tell you things.

The professor told us that steak houses are a big thing for New York Jews. The professor made a point to dine frequently in Jewish steak houses, so often that the Jews saw that he was sincere.

The professor told us that the most important things he learned about Jewish culture came from waiters in Jewish steak houses.

Democrats are incapable of gaining rapport. Democrats are as thick-headed as the French aristocracy of 1789.

Donald Trump has rapport with Republican America.

Every person who decides their woke company is not worthy to receive their labor is John Galt.
