To everybody acting like the desire path is the problem:

  1. If the problem for you is that it's 'bad' or 'illegal', grow a spine so that when you need to break the law, for something that matters, you can do it with dry pants.
  2. If the design doesn't take into account how people will interact with it, it's bad and lazy. Only time it would be acceptable to 'force' a way to interact with something is when there are safety concerns, and there are none here.
  3. You are traped in a cage of your own making, break free or perish like the dog you are.

Seriously. The rabidly boot licking deference obedience and weird conflation if the constructed with the natural/universal is like the worst thing we get from the mostly-christian (anti)intellectual tradition.

These people are not fit to be adults in a built environment. Their states if mind should not be allowed in a world with such feats of artifice as concrete and movable type.

Ok being real dude, I don't think this behavior is a product of "mostly-christian (anti)intellectual tradition," it's just the type of people who never grew out of the color-in-the-lines and follow-your-line-buddy stuff from grade school. I don't think there's any spectacular political statement to be made here.

I'll accept that the corellation is higher up the cognitive chain than that. You may be correct. There's still a political statement here, but that one may have been off the mark.
