There are some valuable insights that can be taken from Objectivism, but it has significant (well known) flaws, as well as the meta flaw that both its allies and its enemies have poisoned the well by insisting it can only be implemented wholesale, and following the bad ideas as well as the good.
Even if you disagree with this, it is simply my rationale for making the thread.
What books or authors would you recommend on individualism that are separate from Objectivism?

Stirner and Nietzsche, obviously. Rand provides no extra value to the ideology, the only good thing she's doing is (poorly) explaining the ideology through fiction, to people who are too stupid to understand Nietzsche and Stirner.

The theory that OP isn't a faggot has significant (well known) flaws.

No I won't say what those flaws are and thereby give OP a fair chance at defending himself.

What a cowardly slander.

The conception of coercion as a negative element.
The virtue of creation rather than rent-seeking.
