The answer to this question is both yes and no. On the one hand, politics is a necessary part of any functioning society. Without some form of political system, it would be impossible to make decisions about how to run the country, how to provide for the needs of the people, and how to resolve conflicts. On the other hand, it is also true that politics can be divisive and can lead to conflict rather than resolution. It is often said that the ends do not justify the means, and that the same can be said of politics. Sometimes, the pursuit of power and control can lead to corruption and injustice, rather than the intendedgoal of improving society. So, while politics is necessary in some form, it is important to be aware of its potential pitfalls and to strive for a more positive and cooperative political system. In an ideal world, politics would be focused on the common good, rather than individual or partisan interests. It would also be characterized by mutual respect and understanding, rather than hostility and division. While this may not always be the case in the real world, it is still a worthy goal to strive for. Ultimately, it is up to individuals to decide whether or not they think politics is necessary and what kind of political system they want to support.
