Called my representative and senators today. Actually spoke to live humans. Felt better for just having them note my opinion.

Political scientists know how to measure the quality of democracies. Unquestionably, 'Accepting election loss' is more fundamental to the quality of a state than civil liberties, which have nuances and conditions. Also punishing the insurrectionists isn't censorship. It's law enforcement.
