Am I the only one who has never listened to songs based on Ayn Rand's ideology?

1. Smashing Punkin's songs are based on Wagner

2. Am I the only one

Who hasn't listened to music from anti- vaxx douchebags? At least no ones going to get a disease because of Peart.

4. Neil Peart?

6. Neil Peart makes my friend break out in hives!

Seriously, Tom Sawyer came on the radio and she got all itchy and goose bumpy and said "I would rather gargle with piss than listen to Rush" Hey, I have an idea!

7. Don't be so fast to come to that conclusion.

If Neal Peart had his way, the person who developed the vaccine would either a) refuse to share it with anyone else, as anyone else who didn't help in the development of the vaccine would be an undeserving freeloader, or b) charge ridiculously high amounts for the vaccine to enrich him/herself, and anyone who couldn't afford the vaxx would be an undeserving freeloader.

:P

3. Libertarians are not necessarily Randroids.

Randroids are technically known as "objectivists". I have no idea whether Peart qualifuies and an objectivist. I rather doubt it, actually.

8. Well to be fair the Album 2112 is based on Ayn Rands novels

However that was 30+ years ago and its probably fair to say Peart's ideology haas likely changed since then.
Rush's themes have a definite skeptical theme to them that I happen to like/identify with.

5. Like, maybe,

"You're So Vain (You Think This Lame Ideology Is About You)"
"Smells Like Teen Objectivism"
"I Just Called To Say My Own Happiness Is The Moral Purpose Of My Life"
