I do hope it’s possible to reclaim the word, both because it still has positive connotations for lots of people and because I think it best describes the sort of process that people really truly mean when they think about how democracy is meant to function.
But I absolutely agree that people can and should happily fissure upon disagreement. The ability to leave is one of the most foundational freedoms we could have.
