Also, feminism is just a variant of communism's class warfare applied to gender relations so its days are numbered.

This is exactly what I've been thinking. They aren't interested in discussion or fixing any problems. They are only interested in gaining power. Currently I think it's best to never apologize or admit anything, and don't let them find me alone. This new "listen and believe" / "me too" phenomenon is dangerous even for ordinary innocent men, especially because society now assumes all accused men are guilty.

Are you an asshole ;-) Maybe I shouldn't be talking to you!

Depends on what you mean by "asshole". I'm not easy to be around, judging how few people can tolerate me for more than a few minutes.

I think they are compromising Rand's principles for popularity and money.

Rand spoke of not compromising with "evil" in "How Does One Lead a Rational Life in an Irrational Society". Maybe this is where the exclusionary preferences of some O-ists comes from. I guess if you read her ideas and integrate them into your own philosophy, you may inherit intolerance of "evil" from her.

My initial exposure to the philosophy was via Branden's "The Basic Principles of Objectivism". It's a great presentation of the philosophy, though I don't know whether O-ists still approve of it or not.
