The Reality

Politics is a battle, a game, a puzzle and a war with words.
If you call cancer a battle, some people will have the energy to fight. Some will crumble before the fight. If you call it a journey, some people will be happy to walk the road knowing there's an end. Others will become anxious with no easy goal to see.
If you call politics a war, people will wanna fight. They'll wanna slay their opponent, fearing their opponent will slay them. If you call it a debate, a discussion, a meeting of minds, people will fight that because they've heard it called a war for so long.
If we call people other and treat them like they're not us, then we will see them as such.
People want comfort. They will look to where it's easiest. I don't think that makes them bad. Just makes things a lot harder as we struggle to figure out where "comfort" is.
