There is never, not even once, a debate or discussion of any kind in which logic prevails.

Far better to have continual pandering to one or more mantras.

Everything always must be presented in terms of black and white, off and on, or "binary logic."

When the truth usually lies somewhere inside the very grey middle. (On edit - Lessig is too damn intellectual for his own good - far too often he shows his awareness of the grey of the middle. Party leaders should stand ashamed that they are clamping down on this type of person, as rather than seeing him promoted, they want to deny him even a moment in the spotlight.))
