I was actually trying to make a point about how the one-dimensional nature of most political discourse (Us!, Them!!) ignores most of the complexity that actually matters. And also acknowledge the reality that our political structures are corrupt, counterproductive and irrational. This may be one of those things you just can't say in polite society.

And our political structures are corrupt, counterproductive and irrational." Expecting us to extract that meaning out of some vague witticism was probably your mistake.
