insurgens ad opus
@lain This is the kind of adolescent thinking that says "the two party system is oppression forced on us by murky scapegoats!" The human brain is a difference engine. It wants to have a clear choice between two options. When more than two options exist, people naturally whittle the field down to two. When there are no clear differences, our minds start to pick things apart or look for ANY differences by which our choice will seem like it was clear from the start. That is natural and normal, and no matter how one might choose to artificially create a different situation, masses of people will behave in a way where it boils down to a choice between two options. More to the point of the stupid statement, human minds focus on the negative by default. This is a function of your survival instinct. Again, it is natural that you would focus on what you don't like about two options over what you like. Anything else is childish fantasy.
