"The moment anyone makes a biased argument because of their attachment to an Idea, they become a Guardian."

I think it's more important what happens when the bias is discovered. Does the group in question reward it or try to eliminate it? For example there is corruption in democracies as well as less free forms of government, what makes the difference is what happens when it is discovered.
