No Gods or Kings, Only Strawman

I have mixed feelings on Bioshock. It's a terrible critique of objectivism, to the point that it can be read as a critique of those who are inconsistent with following their virtues and values. And that's the really weird thing about Bioshock, by pure accident it is implied that Rapture could've worked if only Andrew Ryan had been consistent with the philosophy of objectivism. Besides this, the art-deco aesthetic of Rapture is stunning.
