"When you look at our world, the truth is that we're all under the influence of politics."
-Roland Joffe

Politics, whether we like it or not, is what drives the world forward. Understanding how our own political system works is one thing - understanding the nature of politics is quite another.
One mustn't be ignorant of the incredibly broad range of systems, governments, and political operations. All have their strengths, and all have their exploitative weaknesses.
But it is always important to remember that despite the bureaucracy, political bodies are made up of individuals - all with their own personalities, agendas, and ideals.
Politics - realistically - is the clash of identities and the fight for dominance.
