Are there any steps remaining that can actually be made at this point to bridge the political gaps this world is experiencing?

Question

Try not to say what the other sides need to do from their end. Be more self reflective than that. How can your political side make changes that would extend the olive branch to your political opponents? If you had complete control/influence for your side where would you make changes to your group?

I think people start out running for your city office. They get elected and then they go up a notch higher because of the paycheck But we really do have to understand that the politicians that we elect , they change because they are given money from secret societies , lots of money If you look at the money that they go into office with versus what they leave with , it's millions and millions dollars more OK, but anyway, the secret societies give them money to be re-elected. If they do what they want them to do, it's the secret societies that run our country, this is not conspiracy. This is the truth Did your congressman does your senator. Come on the news and tell you everything that they're doing, because they can't, they're not doing anything barely, they're floating along
Because they're not allowed to 28 point they're told what to do and how to vote The iron thing, it's a big lie. What is happening is the elite? What their own type of Bitcoin, it's a distraction. And it's not even Iran that did anything wrong, it is Israel that is the demon. There was a report. The Army came out with a report. I just asked a question about it. And gag took it off, which is wrong as far as I'm concerned because it held so much information on what's really going on. This is the second time that this has happened to me. In the last past couple days And it was to let the American people know what is really happening , and that it's a big fat lie , killing one hundred and fifty kids for greed is unreal , believable to me , it's sickening I ran's, people are protesting. They have nothing to do with this crap. The leaders of Iran are in big talks. Finding out what is going on? Why in the world are you bombing? Them is because Israel just like before 911 is Israel, that makes it look like somebody else is doing it, it's very weird how they're doing it, but they're doing it. And we're killing innocent people , and I don't want a politician that is in office to represent me by killing people

The problem seems to be that politics has become identity, and doing so makes it difficult to reach workable solutions and it's easy to see why.

I can safely say that many people I know have taken stances that disgust me when it comes to certain issues. But rather than allow for compromise, they want to inflict their way on everyone while accusing me of doing the same. When I point out, however, that "my way" allows for choices and options when their way does not, I am told "I'm immoral and compromise is weakness".

I also realize that our goals aren't even the same. There's nothing but a few very basic aspirations or wants we agree upon. That's what politics has become; it's who you are, not what is good for the general well-being. Then toss in religion and the whole thing disintegrates. Mix with a kakistocracy and this is what you get now in the USA and other parts of the world.

There's a well-known proverb in my country, "if you want to be a leader, be a bridge."

The problem is any bridge needs good foundations on both sides, it's that common ground that provides a base while you work out your differences.

But these days, we seem determined to destroy the foundations. We demonise everything the other side believes. We ridicule, mock, and taunt with insults. Ideas are dismissed not because they're wrong but simply because they're labelled left or right.

Therefore, if we want leaders to be bridges, then it's up to us to lay the foundations. Think about it, not so long ago, the only negative political material you saw was in election leaflets or in biased newspapers. These days, we have countless people churning out memes and countless spreading hate online. You can't log on without being attacked or mocked.

We've allowed childish playground mentality to split us and, worse, still elected leaders that pander to the worst among us. People are so consumed by hate that they dedicate huge chunks of their time to creating online mockery. The solution is simple, grow up, listening, understanding, and compromise isn't weakness it's necessity.

We had a chance when businessmen, democrats and Republicans got exposed in the epstein files. If this won't do it, I doubt anything will.

Yes, I actually have detailed manifestos for some of the changes that should be made on my website.
However to sumerise,

Defining transwomen as a third gender will give cis women their rights and recognition, while giving transwomen their rights and recognition through acknowledgment that transwomen are not biologically identical to women in every way.

Making Equality, Diplomacy and Inclusivity a required part of the school curiculum around the world, and a required subject for both higher education and employment, will encourage the human population to grow in to a more socially mature species.

Economic reform should include a ban of sport as it drives discrimination through segregation, accounts for almost 3% of the national debt, in setup costs, material import costs, energy production costs and training costs. The Sports industry also produces a significant amount of green house gas which damages the planet. Removing this form of physical competition and replacing it with intellectual competition will reduce mental health decline and actually improve mental health.
P. S one of several recommendations in the economic reform I would suggest to save just over 13% on the national debt per anum.

Ban Religion, Religion is responsible for terrorism, extremism and worse, the global delusion of the human species that anything to advanced for us to understand must be a result of god.
When Hominids walked the earth the sun was god, if you look in ancient history the sun god is mentioned, however out understanding grew to a point where we were able to say the sun is not a god it is a ball of hydrogen and helium.
Anything sufficiently advanced will appear god like to a sufficiently inferior being and owing to lack of understanding of science, philosophy, weather, geology, engineering etc.. in the times before jesus when the idea of an all powerful being that was god was being conceived by stone age man, those fantastical ideas that were recorded in cave paintings of supreme deity's were depicted as gods.
The reality is all religion is based on a lie, because believing in god is simply acknowledging your insecurity, your lack of understanding and the fact you are scared because you lack understanding. the belief itself provides comfort.
However an obligational and instructional system is a source of great discrimination.

Replacing Religion with Spirituality, provides comfort that humans seek, but with out the obligation and instruction, spirituality is found through self discovery, no two people have the same concept of spiritual belief so no one can discriminate, because spirituality is inherently unique to the individual.

Use immigrants to fix labour shortages, by allowing temporary immigration until the threat they seek to escape has been resolved.
Labor shortages in both skilled and unskilled work are present, so the only requirement is security checks and to make sure they understand what is socially acceptable and socially unacceptable in the country they are seeking asylum in.

Encouraging Upcycling, to reduce waste disposal costs and carbon emissions.

Encouraging people to grow their own fruit and vegetables rather than buying from a store, to reduce agricultural costs, and carbon emishions.

Encouraging people to use blankets, duvets and warm clothes to stay warm rather than turning on central heating, to reduce carbon emishions.

There's always going to be a gap, people who enthusiastically voted for Trump aren't suddenly going to change their minds and develop empathy, at least not in large numbers. There are also people who would never vote Republican. It's pointless trying to get them to switch sides.

If the Democrats want more people to vote for them, they should fight for their principles and not tack to the ever right-moving "centre".

"New poll: Democrats' real problem isn't being too liberal — it's being seen as too weak"

I really, really like your question and I so wish I had an answer.

I'm in the middle, not on either side. It would be good if both sides stopped making personal attacks and started talking about policy and action.

We have to reconcile ourselves to the fact that Islam is incompatible with Western Civilization. Accepting this is not a way to bridge political gaps. But understanding it is not even worth attempting to negotiate, We need to just settle and make the best of what we've got. Islamists believe non-Muslims and evil and must be conquered and subdued, converted, taxed heavily or killed.

WonderingManII · Answer

I don't think it can be done anymore. Because now days, the two sides have a huge difference between what they believe to be right and wrong.

SeekerOfTruth007 · Answer

hahahahaha. I'm not converting to islam, ever. Muslims are specifically commanded to murder anyone who won't convert to Islam.
