Says me. When I take my razor and scrape your nerve endings. Maybe
I'm wrong, though. Maybe you're just a figment of my computer. Maybe
it's OK to hurt you. Who's to say?
I think that you misinterpret TP if you think that he is a moral
relativist. Moral relativism is, I hate to say it, a lot of academic
buldada. The search for a global community is a search for common
ground, not the negation that comes with the cheap nilhilism. Ayn
Rand and Nietzche may inspire you; I think they're pathetic.
