The woman is reading The Virtue of Selfishness by Ayn Rand. The meme is using the book as a caption, to highlight the selfishness of the woman’s actions (not wearing a mask). There’s an additional layer as well.
Ayn rand is an (incredibly horny) author. She developed Objectivism, a philosophical school of thought that functions off the idea of knowledge and values are objective. That “they exist and are determined by the nature of reality, to be discovered by one’s mind, and are not created by the thoughts one has”. Objectivism is popular among conservatives as it appeals to their world view. The “facts over feelings” crowd in particular loves to dickride Ayn Rand.
Some notable fans of her work include Elon Musk, Peter Theil, Amber Heard, Ben Shapiro, and Jordan Peterson. That’s not relevant to the meme, I just want to highlight that objectivism is a joke and the people who support it are awful.
Conservatives are usually sexually repressed but they exalt a woman who wrote a lot of very kinky sex scenes in between her pseudo-philosophical ramblings. There’s been articles written trying to explain it within the framework of her philosophy but if youve ever attempted to read her stuff, you’ll know she was just mad horny lol
Yeah I dont get it?
