Ayn Rand's essay against racism was used to prove she was a racist!

The dailykos "essay" in the link was published in 2011 but was included in a post today in the forum at baexpats.org.

The author of the post (username ajoknoblauch) is on a self appointed Saul Alinsky mission to discredit me personally. He replies to most of my posts (sometimes withing one minute) ad has actually changed what I have written and then "quoted" me, making it look like I have said something I did not write (and has done so in this thread).

I would greatly appreciate comments from members here regarding the dailykos accusations that Ayn was a "clever racist."

PS: "ajoknoblauch" is not an "expat" living in Argentina. He is a 68 year old travel writer who has a PhD from U C Berkeley and lives on Oakland, CA.

    So the author of this criticism of Rand is saying that only white people can work hard/smart and do business well, etc.? Any philosophy which puts people of ability at the highest rank is white supremacy? That is so fucking stupid. I'll have to introduce that idiot to some of my smart hard working non white friends. The one calling Rand a racist is actually the racist lol.

    "Obama's book "Dreams of my Father" is like Nazi Germany, according to Ayn Rand." Ayn Rand passed in 1982 and Oshithead's book was published in 1995. But this website is not intended for any human with working neurons.
