"There are two kinds of people in this world"

Yes, it's true.  There are actually only two kinds of people in this world.

You've seen it before on every Facebook feed and internet meme that has ever reached your eyes.

You've likely seen a "There are two kinds of people in this world" feed for the following:

• Those who are armed, and those who aren't
• Those who save money, and those who spend money
• Those who drink Coke, and those who drink Pepsi
• Those who love mornings, and those who hate them
• Those who use Apples, and those who use PCs.
• Those who own a car, and those who own a bike
• Those who believe the Earth is sphere, and those that think it is flat

Every single one of these points is a fallacy of some sort, making it mostly wrong.

I could be hilarious and say there are two kinds of people in this world, those who think there are two kinds of people in this world, and those who think there are many kinds of people in this world, but even that's not true.  Someone has almost certainly said this, somewhere, at some point, so I won't try to confirm.

There are of course many different kinds of people in this world.  People who use the "two types of people" argument do so because they've heard it before and it's catchy, but it's incredibly simplistic. 

Of course, I'm not some omniscient, omnipresent god, so I don't actually know with 100% certainty that what I'm saying is true, but the two kinds of people argument sounds ridiculous, and to some people it makes them think the speaker is a moron.  Likely, Bill O'Reilly has used the argument countless number of times, and he's a disaster of a human being, so there you go.

Understand that there are people who drive cars AND bikes, AND trucks.  There are people who drink Coke AND Pepsi.  There are people who use Apples AND PCs.  Get it?

My recommendation is to stop using the "two kinds of people" argument so you don't look and sound dumb.
