Just a big smokescreen, that's all it is, ever has been, and ever will be. To take it seriously at all is just plain ridiculous. Thanks for listening.

Some people can't afford to not take it seriously. For the average Palestinian or Israeli, politics is a mattter life and death.

And people fuel this shit when they take it seriously. The only way to get the Earth back is to forget all about it totally, like it never existed. Go back to nature, meet your mother. Who needs it?

Spiderwebs are a part of life too, but that doesn't mean I like running into them with my face.
And unlike spiderwebs, politics is reliant upon people to believe in it for it to exist.
It's a "concept"
ahem:
con?cept ( P ) Pronunciation Key (knspt) n. A general idea derived or inferred from specific instances or occurrences. Something formed in the mind; a thought or notion. See Synonyms at idea. A scheme; a plan: ?began searching for an agency to handle a new restaurant concept? (ADWEEK).
And since it is just a concept, it is just an illusion which has been placed before your eyes.
It is an illusion which derives it's power completely from those who believe it tangibly exists, which it doesn't, as explained earlier.
Enough people forget about it, the concept becomes rare and eventually dissappears.

Gravity is just a concept too, but I don't see people floating off into space.

politics is part of the science of how human beings interact with eachother. more specifically, it has to do with how humans forcefully interract with eachother.
you can ignore the "concept" all you wish, but the tangible realities the field of politics is intended to illuminate will not go away. whether you or anyone else cares to study the meaning behind it, people will continue to engage in forceful interactions and the state will be there as a part of it all.

I think politics is like trying to stop the syptoms without curing the disease. People put such faith in superficial solutions, trying to fix the external world while leaving the internal one a mess. Without enlightenment politics is just the wheel of Samsara turning around, and around, and around...
