The Logic of Our Times, by Chris Gaither

The Logic of Our Times

In a bit of irony

the only thing that

both sides can agree on

is that a win-win

is intolerable

So one side enforces

a win-lose

where if you’re not in first place

you’re tied for last place

While the other side insists on

a lose-lose

which as a double negative means

everyone’s a winner
