They are linked because Neil Peart was at one time inspired by Ayn Rand's books and he agreed with her philosophy. Many of Rush's songs from that period of time in the mid-1970s to mid-1980s had a Randian influence. However, as Neil has pointed out many times, he long ago moved away from Ayn Rand's philosophy and his writing over the years has had many other influences.
It is very unlikely. Ayn Rand died in 1982, and during her life, there is not much evidence that she liked rock music. Further, she influenced many young people over the years, Neil Peart among them; but unless the people who admired her work sought her out, she did not make the effort to find them. Neil has never spoken about any efort to find her, nor has he said that considered himself one of her disciples.
Oh, dude, in "Anthem" by Ayn Rand, there aren't really any social recreations because the society is all about conformity and suppressing individuality. So, like, instead of hanging out with friends or going to parties, they just do their assigned tasks and follow the rules like a bunch of robots. It's a real party pooper, man.
In Ayn Rand's "Anthem," egoism represents the philosophy of valuing one's own life and happiness above collective societal expectations. The protagonist, Equality 7-2521, discovers the importance of individualism and self-identity in a dystopian society that suppresses personal desires for the sake of the group. Through his journey, Rand advocates for the idea that individuals should pursue their own interests and potentials, asserting that true fulfillment comes from embracing one's own ego. Ultimately, egoism in "Anthem" champions the belief that self-interest is a moral virtue and the foundation of a thriving society.

In Ayn Rand's "Anthem," Equality 7-2521's friends include International 4-8818, a fellow worker who shares a bond with him, and Fraternity 2-5503, who is also part of their collective society. International 4-8818 is particularly supportive and understanding of Equality's feelings of individuality. Together, they navigate the oppressive environment of their society, but as the story progresses, Equality becomes increasingly isolated in his pursuit of self-discovery and personal freedom.
