The greatest revolution in our generation is that of human beings, who by changing the inner attitudes of their minds, can change the outer aspects of their lives.

How to keep it civilized?

Coming into an Argyle Guild meeting, you'll select an argyle:

Red for Conservative, Blue for Liberal, White for Independent.

That is the perspective you're expected to represent in discussion.

Choosing an argyle different from your real orientation

challenges you to speak from that perspective.

 

During the meeting, any person in the room may raise their argyle

if they feel a speaker is violating civilized standards of discussion,

or if the speaker is bloviating or repeating themselves.

Those standards, which are brainstormed briefly at the start of each meeting,

are ultimately held by the collective group.

 

If, seeing the argyles, the speaker doesn't moderate

his or her tone or behavior, the facilitator may stop the speaker.
