"But, when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security." ~ Declaration of Independence
Political Society vs. Civil Society
"Sadly, electoral politics have eaten up far more of life than they are worth. Everything—religion, culture, sports, conservation, etiquette—is seen purely in terms of its political value."

The title "Political Society v. Civil Society" is interesting to disect, because it conveys as little as "blue vs. azure."
The Polis, (with it's POLITics) = city-State = CIVI-lization.
The words "civil" and "civilized" are merely self-congratulatory words used by agricultural city-Statists.
Brutal POLITics is how the megaPOLIS' "CIVI-lized" city-slickers roll.
