The human mind is a democracy, not a dictatorship.

What an alliterative allegory!

perhaps not all minds are governed the same?

[fisherman]

An insightful suggestion. Maybe minds are sometimes other things too, like dictatorships... but dictatorships do tend to make the citizens unhappy and prone to rebellion. Or maybe some minds are monarchies... but then again, most analogies fall apart if you push them too far. All I really meant to do was dispute the idea that people have a unified mind.
