Examples

“a polarizer of opinions”

“When the polarizers are aligned in the same direction, they block⟳ the same state of polarization, i.e. they both block⟳ horizontally polarized light⟳, and both let⟳ the vertically polarized light⟳ through. The second polarizer therefore has no effect on the light⟳. When the polarizers are aligned perpendicular to one another, one will block⟳ the horizontally polarized light⟳ and the other will block⟳ vertically polarized light⟳ — no light⟳ at all gets through the pair!”
