Polarization fluctuates around political events, study shows
Political elites in the US are ideologically divided over climate change. A new paper identifies two perspectives:

I’m not here to convince anyone, and honestly, I don’t care what you think, as long as you treat people with kindness and respect, that’s all that matters to me, unless you’re a fascist, then I don’t.

The Point of Politics Is to Convince People, Not Grandstand
Instead of trying to persuade the hundreds of millions of Americans to our right, sometimes we leftists seem to be competing to prove our radical bona fides to each other. That’s not politics — it’s just wasting precious time.

Just saw a toot about the #brexit and I only remember one thing from that time:
I admitted that I don't have much clue in international politics - but when Trump AND Putin said that the Brexit was a good thing, I knew that it was very likely to be bad for the EU and the UK.

Gerrymandering erodes confidence in democracy
When politicians redraw congressional district maps to favor their party, they may secure short-term victories. But those wins can come at a steep price—a loss of public faith in elections and, ultimately, in democracy itself.

Like David Graeber said, the biggest weapon they have is crushing our imagination, making it easier to picture the end of the world than the end of oppressive systems.

The new engine of voting: Out-party hostility outpaces in-party loyalty across established democracies
A new study led by Professor Diego Garzia of the University of Lausanne, published in Public Opinion Quarterly, reveals a major shift in electoral motivation. In many Western democracies, voters are now more driven by opposition to their political adversaries than by support for their own side. This phenomenon marks a move away from ideological disagreement toward an emotionally charged dynamic rooted in rejection and hostility, an evolution that may ultimately weaken the very foundations of de…
