> Being anywhere close to Microsoft or anything gov-related literally makes me nauseous.

Yeah, I don't like Microsoft either. I'm not keen on working for the government either, but I wouldn't rule it out.

> What was his thesis about?

If I told you what it was, then that would dox him. But I will just say that it's pretty damn impressive.

> Name me one point she was wrong about ffs.

Morality, Free Will, Value, Truth, Libertarianism, ... and almost everything to be honest.

> Very unlikely. How did he rank in the national/international math tests? I bet lower than me.

I don't know. I guess you'd have to ask him.

Okay don't tell me. I'll totally just believe you ;). A nobody, a zero, simply asserts that Rand was wrong about "almost everything". Got it bro ;) ;)

Okay, you couldn't read the webpage. So you asked for this:

Objectivism Uses Sloppy Definitions And Semantics.

There are many problems with how Rand defines "axiom".
Ayn Rand claims that "God" doesn’t exist, without ever defining "God". She has to define what she’s talking about before she can claim that it doesn’t exist.
Theological Non-Cognitivism is a more general position that asserts that whether or not "God" exists depends on how "God" is defined.
Ayn Rand never defined free will. It is necessary to have multiple definitions of Free Will in order to clarify the semantics.
Ayn Rand’s definition of "concept" relies on the definition of "property", but she never defines what a "property" is. A more coherent and non-circular definition for concept is: "Anything or any idea that the human mind can think about."
Why not say "Egoism" rather than "Selfishness", when the latter term has negative connotations and is typically associated with the wrong definition that we want to convey?

Lastly, Ayn Rand wasn’t mindful that the Sapir-Whorf Effect has a huge potential to influence and affect thought. The linked essay shows many applied examples of how that happens in everyday speech.

Ask search_social. He'd love to preach about it.

Or you could just read my webpage on it (still a work in progress, it takes time to write stuff): https://zerocontradictions...w-semantics.html

Okay, so just these irrelevant gay cringe-nerd details, nothing important. You realize she'd vehemently oppose your Gerogist dictatorship idea? Why didn't you mention that? ;)

I did mention it. Read the fucking essay.

Also, I don't give a shit what she thinks. She's a terrible "philosopher".
