"as it highlights how humans have essentially two reactions to change"
I'd wager that the most common reaction to change is actually "wearily accept it as there is no realistic option".
Most change is deleterious to those affected; it requires them to change how they live or work, or pay more, just to maintain the status quo. This sort of change is usually imposed by large organisations against which the individual is helpless.
When people are faced with that sort of change it's little wonder they complain about it, but eventually they have to submit to it or face a degredation in their life or work.
Then those who imposed the change roll their eyes and say "ugh, people are so afraid of change," being insulated from and benefitting from it.
The next time you receive a ToS update from your $FAVORITEVENDOR that negatively affects how you do something, or a new tax filing requirement from $GOV that takes up more of your personal time, do come on here and post about how you embraced the change.
