Not an objectivist -- seems to me their "pragmatism" is
as rooted in realities as your everyday Communist.  But
getting to the point, isn't this the same sort of flavor
radical leftists bring to the stage.  When they're in
the audience at conservative talks, they generally
attempt to disrupt the flow of conversation in order
to prevent free discussion from positions that demolish
their bankrupt world view.  When they speak, like
that bastard Noam Chomsky they enjoy employing the
same dishonest debate avoiding taxes that fool giving
the "Virtues of Exploitation" lecture used.

It seems to me that the inability to cope with reality
and the propensity towards modifying debate parameters
through subversive or oppressive means transcends
ideology.
