The Only True Friends Can Be Virtuous Friends

In aristotle there's yet to be a very close connection between friendship and political, yes, union. So maybe we could focus on the stoics. How would they extend this idea of virtuous friendship into the idea of political union or political action? Or yes, not do that? I think, yes, i think they would exted it. People often, i think, misunderstand the stoics because the stoics were rather in the habit of trying to divide the world into two classes of persons,. The truly virtuous and the non virtuous.
