gollark: * say, even, not do
gollark: Most people can't influence politics much, so they fairly rationally mostly ignore it and do whatever makes people around them not shun them and whatever sounds nicest.
gollark: In politics this might manifest as "taxation is theft (because I don't particularly want to give the government money but they take it anyway)", or "work is slavery (because you are heavily incentivized to do some amount of work or you struggle to afford things)".
gollark: The issue is that a "book" isn't a strict formal thing but a pointer to a rough fuzzy set of things which we call "books" for convenience.
gollark: For example, if I said "this eBook is a book because it's a long-form piece of verbal content", I could then use the noncentral fallacy to go "so it's made of paper and has text printed onto physical pages".
