Replying to Luxferre

The note is more about multiple choices existing instead of just two polar ones, which usually consist of bullshit most of the time. False dichotomy also is a powerful propaganda tool.

"A plague on both your houses" is my reaction to this.

Opinion is not just an onion node running on raspberry pi. It has to differ to have any weight.

That is more complex, tho.

I think people usually want simple answers.

They want the world to make sense and follow some strict universal pattern, rather than being a chaotic mess with a few underlying laws.

That's natural (because people are normally lazy), but the danger always is in letting someone else structure the world perception for you.

Well, I have also done that, I suppose, by following the concept of Natural Law.

I still have to think it through, on my own, but I have a consistent measure.
