  • What we can learn from the latest situation is that excessive animosity between political camps is ruining the country's politics. This has deep historical roots, including the extreme rivalry between the left and right after liberation and the Korean War.

The article from MSN, titled "Ending the Vicious Cycle of Political Revenge," discusses the detrimental effects of political revenge in American politics. It highlights how the continuous cycle of retaliation between political parties has led to increased polarization, legislative gridlock, and a decline in public trust in government. The piece argues that this cycle is fueled by short-term political gains at the expense of long-term governance and national interest. It suggests that breaking this cycle requires a commitment from both parties to prioritize constructive dialogue, compromise, and the common good over partisan warfare. The article calls for political leaders to foster a culture of respect, understanding, and cooperation, potentially through reforms like bipartisan commissions or changes in electoral systems to encourage more centrist politics. Ultimately, it emphasizes the need for a shift in political culture to heal the deep divisions and restore faith in democratic processes.
