Politics itself is not dirty or a bad game but the politicians are playing this game in a bad way. Also, it is pertinent to mention here that the politicians are also a part of that society or country so they should work for the betterment of the people and the state. Politics should always be in a constructive way rather than the negative way. Yes, politics can be sure if it's being done in a positive way. Just to build the people and the nation.

It will be difficult for a profession like Politics that involves "power" to be pure and free from malpractice. Power is intoxicating and the thought of attaining more power or remaining in power turns some people on so much that they can go to any length to get it and remain there. This to me is a strong reason why politics can never be pure.

I think this is impossible. From a small area to a big country, politics will be dirty. Some people are decent because there are people in power, but there are still greedy people. Decent people cannot overthrow these systems. In any case, in my opinion, I do not see pure politics.

This is a complicated political relationship. It may be glamorous on the surface. The interest relationship between everyone behind it and selfish people makes politics complicated and involuntary. People are selfish. Although this sentence should not be so absolute, there are always reasons why people become unscrupulous.

I honestly don't think so. Usually the people that are in/ drawn to politics are pretty nasty people. Yeah there are some good, but in my experience they usually aren't.

politics is game of interest and it's a dirty play which before someone can be among you will commit different kinds of uglyings, and i never see a politician who not heartless basically from the root, yeah i can hardly believe you that we have some good politicians who is not interested to travel with society money

Politics can never be pure because politicans are easily corrupted.

Politics is a very dangerous game. They will promise the voters anything just to get your vote. And best of all we all fall for this by voting for the persons who iss already talking trash. We as humans belief people to quickly. All parties want is your vote nothing else count. Remeber they always look first at their own pockets. The voters get nothing. Only empty promises. Parties back mouth each other but eventually they dont care and we as spectators are fired up and cant wait to vote. They must pay me and then I will cast my vote. These days nothing is for FREE.

[BernyJB]

As a concept, democracy calls for corruption.
No politician today, no matter how good his intentions are, can win an election without getting in bed with those that hold the money.
In fact, many countries have regulations limiting the amount of personal money a politician can use for his or her campaign, literally forcing that politician to corrupt himself.
Should that politician be elected, they'd rise to power indebted to a lot of people that have a different idea of what's "good for the country".
That said, by design, an elected official has a lot of tools (legal or not) to cover their tracks, and a lot of opportunities to do wrong for their own profit. That's a huge temptation right there.

True, politicians are very bad people and without any feeling for others, they do anything for money and power, they are capable of killing hundreds of people to stay in power and have a lot of money. we can see this in so many wars that exist in every corner of the world. What shocks me the most is how most people delude themselves with politicians. One of the main weapons that politicians use is religion, yes, politicians use religion to make their people meek

Maybe in places like Iran or Afghanistan but in most countries they simply use populist narratives that are generated in order to subjugate rational and meaningful discourse. While the glee generation are yammering on about a rainbow coloured unicorn getting married to a transgender cat the political class get on with doing their thang. There is nothing wrong with religion unless it is a false corrupt dogma. In fact radical and absolute atheism has cause more extreme destruction to humanity than all religions combined. Think Stalin,Pol Pot,Mao .........

Yes politics can be pure. In this world we are all surrounded by politics because not only in government or offices even in our homes we play politics, you play politics amongst your wives, you play politics amongst your children, you play politics amongst your friends, you play politics amongst people around, so politics can the pure. Just be honest.

Can politics be pure, honest? This often makes us think Politics is something that is never completely pure, And now politics has reached a stage from which it is foolish to expect to return to a state of purity. The names of politicians are at the top of the list of FBI. Because they are the most corrupt. They think of ordinary people and never try to understand.

Politics is not a good or pure game,politics is a game of the mind.It is a game in which  anything  can be done in other to win election.It is refered to as a dirty game,a game that includes life and death.

The reason why politics can never be pure is because we don't have leaders that are ready to sacrifice their truthfulness,and give his people reason to believe that his tenure is not corrupt.

[Hispo]

Politics can't be pure because it is an invention of us, human beings.
We have already proven ourselves to be very unpure as species, willing to commit attrocities for the sake of our own selfish ideas and ideals.

So no, I don't believe that politics as we know it can be pure.

Politics only exists because it is a lesser of two evils, the other option it would be chaos and anarchy, I think.

Can politics be beyond dirty  game? Can their be politics with no hate or envy of opposition

I think your question is very wrong in the first place. Question must be can politics be separated from our lives? Every organisation, every company, every structure which has people will always have politics, and politics is nothing but management of emotions of the people. Purity is not a trait of humans therefore politics can never be pure because it's made from people who have to convince people, it's just human greed and emotions showing up in open. So no there can never be politics without hate and envy.

Politics can't be pure, I think the impurities in politics is it nature ,there is nothing that can be done about it. Like they always say politics is a dirty game which people it any how in favour of them.politics can't can't be totally be pure.

I don't think politics can be pure. Because as there are many politicians who are just making false promises to audience to make better schools, colleges. However, there are also best politicians who are offering better services to the audience.

[Lordhermes]

Politics has never been pure before and can never be pure as longs as we are still in a corrupt world and generation.
Our political system is filled with deceits and liars which are all about their selfish interest and political ambitions.
All politicians put the goals of the political party first before considering the masses. After they are being elected into office they cease to acknowledge the fact that is was the masses that vote them into office and start exploiting public funds to enrich themselves. Our political system can only be pure if the politicians put the masses before their political ambitions and political party.
