Some form of political activity is made inevitable by our existence as communal animals.
At its best politics is: serious minded individuals coming together in a collegial manner to address the guidance of communal wellbeing.
At its worst politics devolves to: intelligent sociopaths manipulating a naive polity for fun and profit.
Chuang Tzu remarked that in troubled times the enlightened being retires to private virtue.
