Is it possible to be knowledgeable on American and global politics?
without realizing all the paradoxes and Bs, it seems to be a game for egos, with no real creative thought, with the exception of ghandi or philosopher type leaders
for me, I have this problem, i want to be knowledgable in this area and always “up to date” but I hardly find there to be anything new under the sun, which seems to always equal replays of old grievencess, fights, and sourness on partisan, racial, sexual, or subconcious lines this seems to be the only thing that politics does, divides people and feeds the negative force of their egos
anyone have similar feelings
theslogan for political science should be,
‘welcome to politics’ now pick your sides and get angry before you learn anything, becuase those bastards want to kill you’
There *is* nothing new under the sun. If you study the oldest writings from ancient Greece, you’ll see all the same politics and character defects and crazes and ill-conceived laws as you see today. Human nature has not changed one iota in all of recorded history.
As Tip O’Neill said, “All politics is local.” You’ll find that there’s nothing unique or special about national or international politics that you won’t see at the local level. It’s just a matter of degree.
