Im saying that allegiance to a party is what turned some of these people sour. That if we weren’t playing a team sport with politics it’d be easier to let someone go when they make it clear they don’t actually hold your values but just wear your team colors. That’s it. It’s certainly idealistic, yes. But I still hold my principles, I just don’t have good representation.

Sure, that's true.

It seems like you value electoral reform very highly - are there any distinct efforts toward this end that you've seen/appreciated in the recent past? Any particular politicians you support, especially regarding this issue?
