I don't disagree with you on this, but I guess we're getting far from the topic of the comic. I'm not actually a big fan of Rand. (I did read Atlas Shrugged but I skipped the monologue.) I just don't think the comic in the OP is a good criticism of it either in theory or in practice. It bugs me because I think exposure to ridiculous caricatures of "enemy" ideologies leads people to support their own ideology uncritically - after all, the others are so obviously wrong!
