Readiness Is All: Politics Depends On The Capacity For Aggressive Negotiations
If you cannot negotiate, you cannot do any politics.
Any basic or deep study of history clearly shows that history and politics are largely about war. Diplomacy is war conducted by other means.
Both war and diplomacy are primarily based on capacity and capability.

Is It Better To Be Feared Or Respected?
Tony Stark: Is it better to be feared or respected?
And I say, is it too much to ask for both?
. . .
They say the best weapon is one you never have to fire.
I respectfully disagree.
I prefer: The weapon you only have to fire ONCE.
That's how Dad did it, that's how America does it, and it's worked out pretty well so far.

How A Typical Western Buddhist Attempts To Socialize
If it looks like a struggle, maybe this is due to insecurity, mental complications, lack of social skills and sheer lack of experience.
These obstacles can be overcome.
Not that most psychologists actually know what they are doing.
Also, you can just be present and listen and act like you actually care.
As tho we were Mahayana sangha or just all people with human needs and human aspirations.
You've read some Dalai Lama by now, right?
It's not really that hard. You just engage with good intention.
Remember, life is all about relationship.
Guru Sakyamuni Buddha said that.
