I don't think there really is a moderate version of objectivism? It's a pretty extreme ideology.

Also, I think its account of moral clarity and ethics and capitalism and the individuals' relationship to society and all that stuff is just wrong. At the end of the day, when you're implacably opposed to the idea of community or communalism or society, that's not an ideology that I think is either correct or productive.

I've heard it said that the band Rush has a moderate Objectivist message. I haven't listened to enough of them to really evaluate them, though.

haha, that would be pretty funny to me, since the one person I know who really likes Rush is pretty liberal (he calls himself moderate/centrist but most of what he says wrt politics is left-leaning)

By way of example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OnxkfLe4G74 I could argue with it, but it's broad enough that there's only so much arguing you could reasonably do.

Eh, that seems pretty vague to me. But idk.

I don't follow their music, but they're very active in charities and are interested in practising compassion towards the suffering and unfortunate. Hardly an objectivist attitude.

I think the drummer is the only one who liked her epistemology once upon a time?...
