To do anything interesting, you have to be cracked enough to see the world differently but sane enough to do something about that vision. That balance has, ah, eluded me in life but I’ve gotten close enough to know that its there, a couple of times.

When politics devolve into fandom, no good comes of it. Either the other extreme rises from your splintering or, worse, your senpai wins but they’re so extreme that they are completely ineffective at the consensus building that is democracy.
