Politics == Patchwork

 

Undoubtedly, Politics is running out of ideas. Just alike Hollywood. Take this example: The ruling politics in US supported ousting of Bolsonaro in anticipation of Lula being eventually becoming its Liberal friend from religious South America, but, Lula ended up forging bonds with Xi’s China. Deja Vu as flashback of images from the Mid-East+ alliance echoed wherein Mid-East+ too tilted towards China despite gulags. No difference either when Macron in Politico openly stated that Europe should not be vassal in China-US clash;

the same old repetitive issue. In India, Opposition is uniting & evolving with a single belief system to oust the ruling party, who they call a party to be blamed for evolving on a -> single belief system. And even if they oust, then what? Their own past actions/inactions too are no worth embracing either. Often, OIC keeps issuing official statements to support their own community members elsewhere, but never had courage to issue other way around. How is BBC different from RT or Al Jazeera? How would one prove if there’s or there isn’t any editorial interference? Or how’s WSJ/Fox different from CNN/TIME? And is British or Mid-East+ Politics still longing to resurrect long lost religious or colonial empires? Xi’s country, sharing the border with one of the largest consumer market, still calls to conquer Arunachal Pradesh & Ladakh (logic please?). Every two years, whether ruling or opposition; sweat their blood for elections (why it happens?). Silicon Valley had everything, then it fell; How? Under what capacity, the assemblage of regional leaders with common minimum agenda under liberalism could ever resolve even one global issue? How can assemblage of nationalist leaders resolve even a single global issue?   

This isn’t Politics but rather a result of Patchwork done by Politicians in their entire lives (just alike medical science who can’t cure anything rather believe in snoozing until next time). Let the fire keeps burning until it consumes a person, and then try to quench it, keeping the flares to the minimum, until next time it consumes someone else, & the cycle repeats. Look at the case study of illegal aliens. Ask a question to a Politician & you can ask the same question to the 3rd Generation of that Same Politician & it would be passed unanswered & unresolved, but yes, further they contending to be believing in Family Values. Nepotism brings political upheaval.  

There’s a peak/threshold point of everything. For politics, entertainment, journalism, smart phones; & there seems to be we’ve reached the peak of Evolution as well? Today’s Politics is no different from what existed 50 or 100 years back or what might exist 50 years from now!

Once you reach the peak of any mountain, you’ve three options: descend, die or dream to further ascend to sky high. And if you want to ascend sky high, then there’s an indispensable need of a ladder which could come in the form of an alternate species or likes of Strong AI which the humans are intelligent enough for gestation; else once descended, there’ no another try as the mountain too is volcano active!
