>Yes, we also lost the plot on what government should be. It should be a tool for positive some collaboration, on projects that most people can agree on. It should not be a club for beating each other over the head.

And how we get there is through empathy for one another. Like full on Mr Rodger's love your neighbor.

Absolutely! It requires all of us to have agency and reach this on our own time.

A direct quote from Fred Rogers "There's a world of difference between insisting on someone's doing something and establishing an atmosphere in which that person can grow into wanting to do it."
