Well, it's possible that aligning yourself with one font or another might cause a factional rift between Hoeflerians and Frere-Jonesites, leading to an all out typographical war. This polarizes news agencies as they attempt to side with one faction or another, as well as any medium that uses text. Vital territories are seized by both sides: Frere-Jones takes ahold of the world's closed-captions systems, while Hoefler manages to gain control over all the stencils in the world. Soon, no message created in Hoefler fonts is allowed to express pro-Frere-Jones views, and vice versa. The stifling of free information causes the factional divide to deepen. Redactionist worms are released into the internet and military police are dispatched to illegal use of fonts on either side, while the free use of them ascends to higher and higher classes. The world becomes a dystopia.
Personally, I like Agenfont.
