I don't think I can. I gave an example of how people speak colloquially. For instance, one can mention Christianity in a discussion but that term means different things to different people. People will say things like, "Christians believe this..." without it being literally true. Most people speak colloquially and not in a technical sense. The phrase "Ayn Randian paradise" does not imply the sort of paradise envisioned by Ayn Rand. It's a reference to a belief commonly held by people who nominally agree with Ayn Rand's view as they understand it to be.

I asked a question specifically about that above, see: (b)

Is asking for substantiation of a claim, an insulting claim at that, now considered improper etiquette around these parts?

Ask yourself this: how do you know this to be true? Can you share where you've encountered Randians in sufficient numbers to form an opinion with high certainty? And, can you no longer find any trace of these people and their words?

As with most beliefs my belief about "Ayn Randians" comes from anecdotal experience. I can't cite a study or source. Just going by my experience with such people.

Some beliefs are based on facts, others on anecdotal experience, sometimes the difference matters and should not be left ambiguous (in case you were wondering where my determination comes from).

Thank you for the courtesy.
