Issue Oriented Politics With Cannibals
Do you think that it is possible to have issue oriented negotiations, politics, with cannibals? Do you think?Those who negotiate issue oriented politics for political advantage with cannibals end up in the cannibals pot.
When politics, as it is today, resolves itself down to two bipolar constituent groups, one constituent group of cannibals and one constituent group that are not cannibals, it would be extremely unwise for the constituent group that are NOT cannibals to negotiate issue oriented politics for political advantage with the constituent group that ARE cannibals. Politics is the leadership of constituents in their best interest and nonconstituents against their best interest. From the stand point of cannibals, what do you suppose leadership of constituents in their best interest and nonconstituents against their best interest means?
Since the time of Goldwater and Reagan, the 10% minority of the American aristocracy and the 20% minority of the professional middle class as combined duopolistic classes and cultures politically, have resolved themselves into one group of political cannibals preying upon the 70% majority common population as a class and culture; this group of political cannibals are represented politically by the Republican Party and the Democratic Leadership Council, DLC, of the Democratic Party.
The only politics that is possible with those who are cannibals and those who are not cannibals is "constituent oriented politics". Much is made in all areas of the media about issues and "issue oriented politics", but "issue oriented politics" with cannibals will not counterbalance the drive of constituent oriented cannibalism. Those who are cannibals and those who are not cannibals do not have enough in common politically and morally to have sufficient issues in common to sustain "issue oriented politics", only "constituent oriented politics".
Those who are cannibals and those who are not cannibals differ drastically, both politically and morally, to the extent that commonality of issues do not apply; the only thing that matters is whether or not constituents as a group are cannibals or are not cannibals. Therefore, "constituent oriented politics" the politics of either being a constituent of cannibals or NOT being a constituent of cannibals is all that matters.
Politics in the 21st Century has resolved itself down to a bipolar political choice between those who are political cannibals, the 10% minority of the American aristocracy and the 20% minority of the professional middle class, that as cannibals prey on the 70% majority common population as a class and culture; and, a second political choice, those who are not political cannibals. The 70% majority common population have made a second choice not to be political cannibals, and have therefore become the prey of those who have chosen to be political cannibals.
The 70% majority common population of the United States must deal with its cannibal problem by way of "constituent oriented politics", rather than to continue to talk "issue oriented politics" with cannibals.
The 70% majority common population of the United States must become aware that there is no basis for "issue oriented politics" between those who are cannibals and those who are not cannibals; the only possibility between those who are cannibals and those who are not cannibals is "constituent oriented politics", and "constituent oriented politics" will resolve itself down to which side is stronger, which side will end up in the pot, or which side will change the "culture of cannibalism".
