When politics becomes performance
When Political Debate Becomes Performance
Ever notice how “talking politics” — online or off — so often turns into a flamewar, not a dialogue?
It’s rarely about learning from each other anymore.Instead, it’s about virtue-signalling, performing loyalty to our in-group, or “destroying” the other side to score points.
So here’s the real question:
🏛️ Why do you think political discussions so often turn into performances instead of genuine attempts to understand?
🧩 And—what would it actually take to make political conversations about learning again?
