Ayn Rand

Why do people hate her so much?  I mean, invoking her name in some circles is tanamount to summoning a demonic clone of hitler, or pissing in their face.  Even if you don't like her philosophy, which is very understandable, she was a good writer.  It just weird how hard the dividing line between people on her is.

Forgot to finish that one paragraph, but oh well. You can guess how I'd start talking about Atlas Shrugged and how it goes against such modern ideas as, idk, not only thinking about yourself.
