Scenario

When activist communities discover ideological splits

Our community group formed around shared progressive values but now we're trying to take a position on a local issue and discovering we have very different ideas about activism versus accommodation and no one wants to be the person who breaks consensus. We've been avoiding the vote for three meetings.
