I completely agree. Here in Brazil there's a great example of how badly these binaries fail with Getúlio Vargas.

He got into power with the help of the fascists against the communists. But he was an ultranationalist and those were foreign ideologies, so he persecuted both.

He instituted many workers' rights and was called big father of the poor, but was also a cruel dictator who committed genocide against the natives, and also persecuted white Europeans who did not had Brazilian culture.

After being deposed he got reelected and committed suicide in a way that saved Brazilian democracy from a military coup.

Strong evidence for the horseshoe theory.

Only works in written form. Unless the alien says the number as one-zero.

Also, in a bijective number system, every base is 11. (they don't have 0)

edit: not true, brainfart
