“Withdraw your sanction. Withdraw your support. Withdraw your participation in any way you can. Do not try to win the favor of those who have rejected you. Do not try to argue or explain or justify. Withdraw into silence. Leave them to their own devices, and let them see the consequences of a world without mind.” Going Galt 🫡

“Going Galt” is a nice phrase.

John Galt was an uber-competent scientist and inventor. What do *you* have to offer.

If you dig that book try out A Lodging for Wayfaring Men. It is in the tradition of the cyberpunks. Atlas Shrugged + cyberpunks = ALFWM. You can find an audio podcast with it by @Max called Parallel Society that I thoroughly enjoyed!!

Yes! I'm very happy that you're shilling the book now too! I agree it's the Atlas Shrugged for Cypheprunks. What did you like about the book?
