An embryo has no rights. Rights do not pertain to a potential, only to an actual being. A child cannot acquire any rights until it is born. The living take precedence over the not-yet-living (or the unborn).

I mean she hated all non heterosexuals, hated the concept of a welfare state (didn’t stop her from claiming benefits when she ran out of money,) and essentially based her political views on the laughable, ridiculous assumption that the privileged were in fact being oppressed.

Basically, Rand does *not* count, given how bigoted and hypocritical she was…
