Anthem

Description

Ayn Rand published her book, Anthem, in 1946. In the included foreword she provided, she bemoaned “people who accept collectivism by moral default” despite there being ample evidence of the bloody consequences of that approach. “Those who refuse to see it now are neither blind nor innocent.” Sadly, though some seventy years have passed, that evidence has only accumulated and compounded, heaping body upon body, bones upon bones, mass graves over other mass graves. And yet, even now, ‘collective’ ideologies are still accepted as the ‘moral default.’ Ayn Rand’s prescient book, Anthem, was a warning. But it was a warning unheeded, leaving us to wonder if there is any genocidal calamity that could take place that could shake the foundations of the inclination towards collectivism that we remain awash in.
