A badge for political engagement

by **Barbarossistan** » Wed Nov 30, 2016 9:55 am

Currently there is a badge for political apathy, awarded when your people do not care. Could we get a badge for the opposite, i.e. when your people are very politically engaged? I think it would be nice to have a badge for the "positive" side of political activeness. It would also fit well with the existing pairs such as crime/compliance and environmental beauty/ghastliness.

There's already one for, "Cultivating a nation of activists."

Barba is talking about badges, not banners.

My bad. A "political engagement" stat would be cool I suppose, but it needs a cool name.

Political Activism
or perhaps Community Organization?

I've actually wondered why there wasn't a badge for this, this is a great idea.

You can be aware but still apathetic. The opposite of apathy is activity, thus Political Activism

The opposite of apathy is enthusiasm or passion. Apathy means a lack of interest or being uncaring. So, Political Interest or Political Enthusiasm?
