TMW you find out the daughter of a beloved childhood author helped build libritarianism with Ayn Rand

Rose Wilder Lane - Wikipedia

Like I had no idea she was that bugfuck. Apparently Zora Neale Hurston was on that shit too

surpriiiiiise

Also, think of it this way: every purchase of a Little House book with your 8 yo allowance money helped fund libertarianism. I'm kinda pissed actually.

noooooo

zora neale hurston, too??

wo ai ni ★ otoh I found out Claude McKay was a full shit-talking Commie for most of his adult life and WEB duBois was for a while too.

Yeah dude, check her wiki. She seems better than Lane and Rand, tho.

I mean. I paid 0 dollars for my Little House books. so.

suck on THAT ayn rand

I read most of mine out of libraries! But I loved them so much I scraped pennies together to get a few.

McKay has an AMAZING takedown of Alain Locke and you can tell he was full-on tire of his shit.

It literally ends with "I'm going back to Africa"
