Seb's Odds and Ends

"Repressive inclusiveness poses as something progressive. All ages, 8 to 80! One size fits all! Fun for all the family! Guaranteed to please! The downside is obvious: when you claim that one size fits all, you're not looking at all the different shapes of people there are out there. When you say that everyone's sure to enjoy something, you're disregarding the fact that one man's meat might be another's poison. When you sell off-the-peg clothes, you put the tailor and his tape measure out of business. And when you "practice synergies", merge with rivals, cut corners, focus on core markets rather than niches and minorities, take over the market, your one-size-fits-all philosophy becomes a form of repression."
