Can politics be pure?

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

   We can not say politics is pure they just think what the aim and benefit they will achieve cause their goal is to get people to believe until they get the people to bet and trust. They will rule in a cruel aspect an people have no Idea on what vision on their community because their where just a blind of fact. The problem if people they just vote a politician who are not reliable an who buy their voting. So I stand politics can't be a pure.

There is no such thing as democracy. It is plutocracy where the the haves protect their interests from the have nots giving the masses the impression they are in charge of the decision making process. "Democracy" is among the masses only and allows popular opinions and cultures already designed for the plebs to rule over them through majority opinion.

Democracy could have been nice and probably the best form or government but in reality as we have it today, is that... There is no such thing as democracy. Its some idea in our head of which, its manifestation is questioned to the simplest principle.

There have not been one credible election in a democratic government in my nation and yet, we claim to practice Democracy. Where the rich and those in places of power demonstrate all sort of corrupt practices and still get to get away with it. Questions might be asked, if at all  and in no time, it all would be forgotten without any proper forwarding. Democracy is one of the biggest deception in government.

What is refer to be democracy is not in the real life, democracy is said to be free of speech to address what is not right in the society,  democracy is said to belong for everybody but it seems that democracy is been practice by one set of people in the society. The common people in the society are not experiencing the real democracy,  the main definition of democracy.

The question reminded me an amusing anecdote:

Once upon a time, a prostitute and a politician were arguing. The politician said, 'I have never been bribed. Prostitute answered " I'm a prostitute for 30 years, but I'm still virgin."

So many of this young aspiring politicians have a pour mindset to work for the betterment of it's citizens and uplift the right human rights but little do they know that ,it a different ball game entirely, politics is full of cabals and they determine what happens and how the country will be ruled.they control ever parastatals, Politics is a dirty game ,if you can't beat them, you join them or else you see yourself out of the office and get behind,those who go there with genuine intentions later becomes one of them due to the already existing corrupt system.
Pure politics is hardly experienced, only 10% out of 100% ,you become a politician and yet poor for exercising pour politics.

Politics is now a lucrative business that many want to go into, they don't mind how much they will spend knowing that if they should succeed from Politics they will make a lot of money from it . People don't aspire for Political post because they are willing to work and serve the people,  what they are going after is to make money for their generation to come.

Politce is a very dangerous game on those who go into it, everyone wants to get into control and power, in Africa, politicians want to get into power and position with every possible means, they care about themselves and family only. Majority of the Africans politicans are after their own personal selfish interest not minding or caring for the citizens.

The process they took and get into power by all means are evil because majority of them kills and they are ready to kill more, looking at it this way politics in such ways and manner can never be pure.

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

Politics is nothing people do with a good conscience, i have never seen someone who is a politician that works with government with free hand, that's why politicians do ugly things to make sure that power remains in their hands or within their circule, i believe that politicians are deadly and before they can be open to someone it take time, politics is not pure and it's hard before politics can be pure.

How can politics be pure when the evil of men would never ends. There are many things that are happening in the politics world but we might not know now because of many news are not being spread because of the effect it might cause in the society.
There are many things going wrong and we just have to be very careful to keep things safe so it will not escalate to conflict or civil war.

Politics can be pure when we have a good selected people in politics so there is some certain things I understand in politics not every person who is the politician is the key person or is a bad person in positive at least we have some good people who is into politics that is doing well that can defend the interests of her people in any angle of government

NO, there will always be dirty games and dishonest indicators. They will never be able to honestly divide the power or the economy of income from their position.

[Belarge]

To me I think Politics is a pure game, a game of you either win or you lose, but it's just that it's our Politicians that have turned politics into a game of death or life because of their hunger for power and other selfish interest, I see no reason why a politician who knows he/she has no charisma to lead would run for an electoral position and want to bribe inec or maybe do anything human possible, using other vices( using thugs,, money, crisis) to win an election, if you feel you have charisma, then do your pure campaign and allow the people to choose their representative with their voters card.

Politics is a pure game that is played by dirty Politicians...

It just impossible to be honest. Concerning what op is asking, politics can't be what the way op thinks politics should be, expecially in this recent times. We all know what will be the benefits handling any political seat, this is why politicians can't be polite and friendly to each other.  The selfish interests will always be a reason why they must fight each other to get their personal achievement in politics. This is how politics is and nothing can change it.

[Lordhermes]

Op didn't defined the kind of purity he is talking about, politics is game not to be play morally. it's has to do with the strong minds. If you want to be pure go to the church or mosque. The society itself isn't pure and the people therein are not pure too, so how do you expect the leaders to be pure? We must understand that politics is a game of interest, once your interest are not achieved they tagged it evil. But once they benefit it's working.
We only seek for fair game, not do and die game. Once you lose you should accept and if you win all everyone alone, that alone will bring sanity to the game.

Can politics be pure?


Isn't politics pure if it's pure politics?


Simply said, Political Science is a method for convincing people to believe something, no matter what it is.

politics is nothing near being pure, there's even an adage that says politics is a dirty game and so all that wants to be part of it has to be dirty as well...

It involves so many envy and jealousy that involves fightings, rituals that requires human bloods that's why, in my country, people dread the election period more than the anyother time or season..

PS, this may not be relatable to your country.

There are many things happening in the world that is why we need to get prepared for the worse thing to happen because our politicians are just there to spoil the system and do things the way they likes. People are suffering and sometimes we do hear from the news that a big amount of money is been used to do some certain things which may not be true. We need to wise up and not allow politicains to use us for something illegal just because of the money they will give to us.

Politics is associated with the governance of a country where by several parties debate to have power, lately alot of people think politics is a dirty game due to the violence and greedy quest for power by most politicians, but I think politics can be pure if those politicking abide by the rule of law, without violence and carry out a peaceful coexistence with their opposition parties.

In what way is politics pure and noble?
Politics can be pure and noble in several ways. At its best, politics is a means of serving the common good and advancing the interests of society as a whole. Politicians who approach their work with integrity and a sense of duty can make a positive difference in the lives of their constituents and leave a lasting legacy of good governance.
Here are some ways in which politics can be pure and noble:

1. Public service: Politics can be seen as a noble profession because it involves serving the public and making decisions that impact the lives of citizens. Elected officials have the opportunity to work for the greater good and to help shape the future of their communities and countries.
2. Leadership: Politicians have the ability to provide leadership and to inspire others to work towards a common goal. Effective political leaders can rally people around important issues and mobilize public support for positive change.
3. Advocacy: Politics can be used as a means of advocacy for marginalized or vulnerable groups. Politicians who champion the cause of the disadvantaged can help to level the playing field and promote greater social justice.
Diplomacy: Political leaders can engage in diplomacy and international relations to promote peace, stability, and cooperation between nations. Diplomatic efforts can help to resolve conflicts, prevent wars, and promote global prosperity.
4. Civic engagement: Politics can also be a way to encourage civic engagement and participation. By creating avenues for citizen participation in the political process, politicians can foster a sense of ownership and empowerment among citizens, leading to greater civic pride and a stronger democracy.
Of course, not all politics is pure and noble. Corruption, self-interest, and partisanship can all undermine the ideals of good governance and public service. But at its best, politics can be a force for good, advancing the common good and creating a better world for all.

Why then do we have hope if we don't believe that things can truly change for good, there have been some certain stages of life where things have gone bad and worst than expected, many have died and the politicians have also persihed along, this is not a matter of calibre or status, sometimes things go wrong and everyone is affected, those we need to rule us are the ones that will always have the interest of the people on mind before theirs and leave by example.

They might look like they are good at the beginning or while trying to emerge  into power,but when when once they are being appointed into the various positions,they will act according to what suits them,and no longer the will of the people.Politics nowadays is something one can never predict,or it's now something one  can never put mind on because the leaders constantly fail us,and most atimes cause trouble in the heart of citizens.I stoped supporting anything that has to do with politics because I have had a lot of heart breaks from it.

The system of politics cannot make politics to be pure I believe that the politics can never be here because of each way of operation so many people can say that politics is not pure from my understanding and the way I'm seeing politics in my society politics can never be pure and is not pure based on the people who is the leader of politics or government in my area

[Ebede]

We understand government and their politics the way they give us because there is a place you go or country that you find yourself you will see that the government or the leadership of the country is very different from the country you find yourself so when you use the level of commitment and the criticism people apply in their own country to compare to another country you see that maybe politics might not be pure in your country but in another person's country all it is is pure because they respect humanity
