Entry: Whittaker Chambers Versus Ayn Rand Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/whittaker_chambers_versus_ayn_rand#7705 Post contents: “…She opposed the mechanical materialism of the Marxists and others who carelessly subtracted consciousness from their view of human nature.” Surely you mean “deliberately subtracted,” not “carelessly.” The Marxists were and are dispassionately barbarous, not stupid. Denying consciousness abjures humanity, and the “masses” are made cattle. Sent at: 2008 07 09
