MODERATORS
You say surrealism is anti-fascist. Then you say cruelty and absurdity are the same thing (two sides of the same coin). Then you try to clarify by saying they are two separate things but have a commonality (two coins same side). I think ying/yang is more fitting, and quicker to the punch, in that there can be a little cruelty in absurdity and vise versa, which you were dancing around with your ill fitting metaphor. So, yes, I don't think so. Clarity is in the eye of the beer holder.
The expression "two sides of the same coin" does not mean two things that are the same. It means two things with the same base and opposite expressions.
As such, the same side of two different coins indicates two different bases with the same expression
The metaphor works better and acknowledges more nuance than the Yin Yang.
