More false Aristotelian logic games...

slacktivist: Binary Code:
"Either/or. This or that. Only this or only that. Government or individuals -- and only government (Leviathan) or only individuals. Laws or markets -- and only laws or only markets. Anarchy or tyranny.

What a weird, unreal and inhuman way of looking at the world.

Yet strangely popular.

I just don't get it. The real world, of course, doesn't look anything like this. Yet when adherents of this strange binary outlook encounter the real world, they never consider adapting their theory. Instead, they set about to change the world to make it more compatible with their theoretical construct."
