Ignore the troll who is trying to confuse you by slandering the rest of
us. I have been using python for 18 years, I believe. Current Python
has a loop at the core
>>> isinstance(type, object)
True
>>> isinstance(object, type)
True
For using python, you hardly need to know this. (It obviously was not
true before 'object' was added in 2.2.) The interpreter creates this
loop on startup with code similar to the following, except that it does
so with classes rather than lists.
>>> lob = []
>>> l0 = []
>>> l1 = [l0]
>>> l0.append(l1)
>>> l0 in l1
True
>>> l1 in l0
True

Guido's decision to make python be that way.
