That's an English saying that came to mind while I read your post. It refers to the fact that politicial interactions seem to combine different kinds of individuals with different viewpoints, but after a short length of time they all end up behaving the same way as previous politicians. Just a little insight, Yuri. 
As for the post, I changed a few sentences completely to increase their readability (to my eyes at least) but still tried to keep the central concepts. Even without revision, your strong views on the subject are very clear. It is a valuable insight.
The troubles in Japanese politics are known to some extent even in the Western world. Scandals and quick falls from power seem to be the norm. However, the feeling that people only raise someone up in order to tear them down is a universal human trait. It puzzles me why that happens so often.
The only thing I can think of as a reason is people do so in order to get their views and their desires fulfilled over anyone else's; the direct connection to the power to shape the world as they see fit, without any difficulty or repercussions. When that doesn't happen, the only thing they can think of doing is destroying what they just raised to a higher position.
I suppose I could go on, but then it would become an unproductive rant. 
A very informative post, Yuri. Have a great week!  |
Hi, Koir. Thanks a lot!
May I write what you wrote in my blog?
I’m sure your view is very informative to Japanese people.
I thought I needed to study other countries’ politics reading your post.
Thank you for your helpful comment.
