I just came across this, so perhaps haven't seen this either.

I felt this was really really good. Give it ago.

Strangely, you posted this video at the exact same time I posted this:


And as far as collectivism goes, Griffin and Rand seem to have a different definition of the word than how it is being used these days. Collectivism has more to do with 'the good of the group at the sacrifice of the individual'. I don't think anyone is making that kind of claim when we group ourselves as Libertarians, or the freedom/liberty movement. Just my flea-bitten opinion.

And at 3:20, Griffin states what I stated almost verbatim. Weird.

At any rate, seems most people are confused about what collectivism means.

Gonna try to watch the whole thing. Griffin is amazing.
