Topic: Can politics be pure? (Read 1367 times)

Politics can never be pure in as much as other opponents exists, Envy naturally is embedded in politics , the existence of other polictical parties makes politics competitive And quest to accomplish Evil practices.There are always bloodsheds,kidnapping,And voilence when it comes To politics And with all these atributes politics can never be pure.even without opposition politics can never be pure because even people in the  same political party fight themselves And Create some fractions on who To present as the party flag bearer And this Brings disunity And sometimes threat To life.

Lastly , even in our homes we play individual politics where the father , will be in one politcal party, the Mother another party And the Son in another party Bringing disunity And lack of trust among Family members , however,in My own perpespective it  will take the Grace of God for politics To be pure.

Because violence is involved in politics it is impossible to bring politics to the right path. Many people think that a compromise between the two main political parties is necessary to continue and accelerate the real development progress and prosperity of our country. The question is any kind of reconciliation possible between the two political parties of the two opposite trends? One might say the ideological difference between these two parties has now reduced to such an extent that there is no reasonable reason not to reach an issue-based compromise even if it is not permanent.

I don’t know about the spiritual on this subject. Some people who are on seat may not be spiritual, it could be the rough political game that they played to win the position. But I can’t speak on what I do not know., I already spoke on the common things we see amongst politicians and their supporters.

Politics can never be clean.  Politics in most countries are corrupt.  Because greed for power.  Because of the greed of power, people make various promises before coming to power. But once they come to power, they don't remember those promises.  And involved in various types of corruption.  However, this does not apply to the leaders of all countries.  Some countries have leaders who still care about the people and run a clean country.  And they do not engage in corruption.

If there will not be opposition, I guess politics will be pure because nothing will make the party to do some things that will bring fight and hate among the members and anyone that lose at the moment it will not cause war in the society.

But as long there is an opposition in the party the politics will never be pure in the society because, the two parties will be doing some things that will make the members to begin to see each other as enemies and they can do anything to destroy each other because their leaders has use money and lies to change their minds.

Politics that was meant to be a social game that winner takes the crown and the looser humbly accept the defeat with all being equal of putting all hands on deck for better governance without being biased has becomes do or die affair that everyone wants to win with all cost without undermining the disasters it may cause to the society at the virtue of compulsory measures of taking the crown 👑.
Game of personal interests has invoked in the political systems which can't be undo instead more political bigots are in making where it affects everyone interested in politics.

there is nothing as that even in a theoretical sense. Do you know how much candidates and politicians spend just to win election? You think after spending such amount they will sit back relaxing for things to go out anyway?  Politics has never been a friendly game that's void of envy and so thier no two ways about it. If you want to get involved in politics, be ready to come along with all you've got cause power isn't gotten by mere wishing.

But another thing to also consider is, can  the electoral system work in such a way  that it would be void of manipulation and physical combat? Certainly yes, but no one wants a straight process where the will of the masses prevail and the winner is one that's the most qualified or he his the one that has the highest number of votes. It would have been a good thing if stuff like that happens but the reality is that we are far from witnessing such thing and the reality still remains that we might never come to a point where the whole electionary process can be void of envy and opposition. What makes politics beautiful is the fact that opposition are available which makes it's competitive scenario that aims at making each of the parties involved to sight time and put in the effort of they are interested in securing the seat.

Politics without envy is not possible and that is because there is always losers. Anyone who loses a contest will not be happy that they lost. That is why envy comes in, although most of them in civilized Europe will pretend they are not feeling bad when they lose. In Africa, it is that bad that losers can go on a witchhunt and killing of their opponents. It is obvious knowledge.

Yes your very correct, my opinion is that as long as human heart is hidden and can't be read by the face, it's impossible to deal away with it .

Why is it called politics the smartest ability to convince the people, allot is involved,this includes criticism,lies, witch-hunting opponent, buying of cartels or carbas to be mentioned but few.

Many hidden things in politics , it's as origin as many as allot to be reference as politics happened in some area in the spiritual that one don't need ask why it's so, example story if esu and Jacob, Ishmael and Isaac, in my view it's political because smartness played out.

Politics can get messy sometimes, but that doesn't mean that it will go dirty always. I believe politics can be pure if the people involved focuses on the betterment and wellbeing of the society and work together without Hate or Envy for the opposition and With the right mindset and values. There are examples leaders who show elements of purity e.g

1. Nelson Mandela, who played a Vital role in South Africa's transition to democracy. Mandela advocated for reconciliation, forgiveness, and equality, even after years of imprisonment. Mandela's leadership was characterized by his commitment to reconciliation and nation-building. He is widely regarded as a symbol of peace and equality.

2. Mahatma Gandhi's leadership during India's struggle for independence. Gandhi emphasized nonviolence, truth, and equality, and his political approach was rooted in peaceful resistance and the pursuit of justice.
 
These are leaders who demonstrated that politics can be played with a genuine desire.

Politics has never been pure since the birth of the world and I don't think it will be in the future. When a major incident occurs on a political issue like a student killing, everyone starts talking about their dirty politics. Such incidents created uproar in the country for quite some time and protests started against playing dirty in the name of politics. At a stage there is no one to protest, people forget because political power prolongs the process of punishing the guilty by the judiciary. Politics is tainted by power struggles, corruption and vested interests, it can never be purified.

Politics can be at least good but can't be pure.
It being good can now check between dirty politics

Politics can never be pure, because in every 12 their must be a juder someone his mined set will not be the same as yours ,they said the mined of all soja's are not the same , because many are called why few are choosen so in this case their is nothing they will do in this country that politics can be pure ,it's called a dirty game, because it's not realible

Politics can never be pure as the concepts of politics from the ancient Greeks society was who gets what how and when
Politics is just some few persons trying to control the few resources of the masses

I am not sure I understand what you mean. A politician who has good intentions and is honest about it should rather win than lose. In fact to win you need to show that you have good intentions (even when you don’t). So honesty about the wellbeing of the country or whatever terrain doesn’t hinder but fuels winning.

A single person cannot run a pure and clean politics alone, if he tries to do it alone, it will be as good as not trying at all because his efforts will be ruined by the majority corrupt cartel members in his circle. A perfect politics devoid of corruption, dishonesty, betrayal and deceit can only be achieved by collective efforts by all those directly and indirectly involved in politics (not just limited to the cartel members). And as we know,  humans will always be humans, it will be quite difficult for everyone to agree to a just course because many will be pushed by greed to trade their integrity and act against the wishes of the people they are representing or intend to represent. We cannot force everyone to be upright, for this reason,  politics cannot be pure.

We can have a pure practice of politics of those involved are by themselves being pure a d truthful in all they do, corruption is one of the main factors affecting many politicians because they have to pay obeisance to those that contributed to how they emerge into office and have to do according to their dictates, no one can emerge a winner into any political office without having the interest of the people in mind, but the path through which he emerges will not allow under the cartel so called calibres.

I don't think so.  I think politics can never stop the dirty game behind it.  There will be violence and hatred in politics.  It will not decrease but will increase day by day,,,

If such thing happen in politics, it will not make many people to go into politics because they believe that those are some of the things masses want to hear from every politician that comes around them and, if you by mistake tell them the truth, just that you want to be a pure politician, it will be difficult for such politician to win their election.

Many politicians use jealousy, lies and fight to achieve their goal in politics because they know that is what make some followers believe that the person really love them and he or she will do all the things he has promised the society when he resume office.

politics can be deadly if we don't know how to play the game especially with the opponent that has the experience and can do anything to get to the seat. This is a game of sense and we should always think and make proper planning before taking any move at all. We need to be focused as someone that is coming up in politics so that we don't end up doing things that is not going to take us to where we are meant to be.

 There are politicians that are just after the wealth they will gathered when they get to that position and are not ready to do anything at all. They are after packing the funds and use it to buy houses, travel and enjoy themselves. Although this kind of things happens in under developed or developing countries.
