Divisive Politics
Buck Taylor
Welcome to the fifteenth article of Red Rag
The nature of eBritish politics today is becoming polarised, a yawning gulf emerging between either side of the political divide. This deep chasm long ago claimed the now broken body of understanding, the smashed corpse of neutrality and the rotted carcass of respect. In the minds of political activists and so-called pundits alike the only things capable of bridging the gap are vitriol, spite and recrimination.
This is not the way, you know it, I know it, even that evil bastard whose responsible for all the ills that have ever befallen the eUK, ever, and who stubbornly refuses to realise I’m right and he’s wrong, he knows it too. But still it continues.
I don’t write this article to offer some wondrous solution, there is no magic cure that will fix our broken politics. What we need goes beyond that, what we need is for each and every citizen of our green and pleasant land to realise that it is down to them. Every time you insult a fellow citizen you dig the grave of decency that little bit deeper. And at this rate we’ll be able to hand over the coffin to the devil personally.
Show some respect, even to those poor deluded fools who don’t vote the way you do. Because, without them, eRepublic is nothing.

Nice one Alpha... perfect example of petty politics mate
The combination of Karl Marx, Jesus, JFK and Gandhi is a strange one, I now joined them. Voted.
It is good that there are several positions in (political) debate. It cannot be either this of that.
@Niemand, absolutely frightened with the idea of a coallition?
voted, good article Buck 07
The arguments from both sides are neither new, nor original. To be honest they got boring somewhere around April/May time...
Wow pleased someone said it, I was wondering what was going on!!
All people seem to do around here is fight and write abuse about each other in others peoples articles!!
Alphabethis being the perfect example even here in a neutral article.
Don't think I'll be sticking around there is enough bitching and moaning in real life without having to read it online too!!
@Alpha - "mmm , an anti-revolutionary communist..."
Communism on the whole did not take to the theory of permanent revolution ... which in part explains why the rather autocratic Stalin did not take much to the revolutionary Trotsky. Therefore communism on the whole is not as revolutionary as you suggest, because Trotsky never won that battle.
As far as the article goes though ... Agreed; we should be able to stop the bitchin and RL-like politicking.
doucher, agreed, revolution and comunism are two concepts very far away each other.
