Meetup
We host high-quality intellectual discussions in San Francisco.
Living your best life and achieving greatness requires a deep integration of thought and action. Few places focus on high-signal intellectual discourse that challenges your core beliefs, and helps you reach the most powerful and true ideas. Most other philosophy groups focus on useless esoteric ideas or shallow midwittery.
We are not viewpoint-neutral: our discussions have a strong bias towards action, clarity, and objectivity. Our format encourages thoughtful engagement, tough challenges, and clear conclusions.
Morality is where philosophical ideas turn into practice, it is the interface between mind and body, spirit and matter. Moral ambition means you hold yourself, your ideas, and your actions to the highest standard. You deeply care about having the right ideas, don't settle for vagueness, and relentlessly act on your convictions.
Any ideas that can empower us: from metaphysics to politics, epistemology to art.
Often we explore ideas that are underdiscussed and undervalued in our culture. Other times we focus on particular flawed ideas to understand why they are wrong, why they are successful, and how we can succeed them.
The moderators are interested in Ayn Rand and will select some of her essays for discussion. Attendees can always recommend new topics.
