I can ask the Ayn Rand Institute’s Yaron Brook anything? How many of my abortion questions can he evade?

Tune in Saturday for
“As the Worm Squirms.”

ASK YARON ANYTHING!

Ask Yaron and you shall receive. It’s true. This Saturday, February 20, Yaron Brook will devote the entire show to answering your questions. Join Yaron here, at 2:30 p.m. Eastern.

Email your questions to ARIRadio@icloud.com. Yaron Brook is looking forward to hearing from you.

I’ve been pestering this knothead for more than seven months, entreating him to defend Ayn Rand’s vicious, puerile, utilitarian argument for abortion. What have I heard back from Ayn Rand’s intellectual error’s intellectual error? The ugly, oily silence of evasion – a topic Rand wrote about at great length in her habitual state of non-contradictorily-joyous rage.

There are other questions I could ask Brook, but he wouldn’t answer those, either. But if you care about the prospects for human liberty, you care about love, sex, marriage and family – and especially childbirth – in ways Ayn Rand, Murray Rothbard and many other big-name libertarian theorists did not. Accordingly, rather than challenging Pope Yaron to evade other topics, let us simply revisit the ground he has so far feared to tread.

So: If I could ask Yaron Brook some of the questions he has evaded so far, and will no doubt continue to evade, among them would be these:

Do you admit that being instrumentally involved in an abortion is self-destructive to the the actor?

Do you agree that the pro-abortion argument is necessarily incompatible with egoism?

Do you concede that Ayn Rand’s position on abortion is at war with humanity itself – most especially the humanity of the people who knuckled under to Rand’s domination?

Can you concur that by being so resolutely anti-family, big-O Objectivism and all liberty-seeking movements have destroyed their own future impact?

Is there any doubt that, by killing their own offspring, ‘students of Objectivism’ and other advocates for human liberty have delivered the future of humanity to the ruling class?

Do you acknowledge that Ayn Rand’s argument for abortion is childish utilitarianism – a rationalization for homicide?

Why haven’t you and the Ayn Rand Institute renounced and denounced Rand’s vicious, anti-man, anti-mind, anti-life stand on abortion?

Can you acknowledge that you and the Ayn Rand Institute have expressed nothing but intellectual cowardice on the subject of abortion so far?

Are you prepared to apologize to the many thousands of ‘students of Objectivism’ who slaughtered their own children on Ayn Rand’s – and your – bad advice?

When will you admonish young ‘students of Objectivism’ to stop murdering and pantomimically devouring their own offspring?

I could go on, and, of course, I have. But the most astringent abortion question I have for the endlessly evasive Yaron Brook is simply this:

How do you sleep at night?

Tune in for Saturday’s broadcast to hear none of these questions answered.
