I have been wondering if the progress of society (excluding science), is just the natural course of development?
What I mean is that no group of politicians, will, or ideology will make society progress, but the natural instinct of humans to avoid pain. In history, the most important changes have been because of revolutions and wars. Not because a group of politicians sat down and made the world a better place.
It seems to me politics are only useful to do evil things and take advantage of the weak. Very few times they do something actually good.
The reason I exclude science is because I believe that, contrary to society, this requires genuine personal effort.
