    At this point I kind of agree that it’s pointless to argue about it as the word’s connotations have already changed.

    But again the Ayn Rand as a Libertarian is still viewing the word through the altered meaning that rose to prominence in the US. Previous to that change it indeed was a wing of anarchism, a left-wing ideology.
