No community of people can sustainably exist and develop without principles (conservatism) and compromises (freedoms) between individuals and society and people.
Strict "principles" are the glue for non-disintegration of the structure and it is a brake on the development of the system as a whole.
Continuous compromises (freedoms) are, on the one hand, a condition for the development of the system and, at the same time, on the other hand, a source of the disintegration of integrity.
The totality of people will never turn into integrity without the presence and observance of certain rules, norms, and customs of behavior by each member of the community.
A categorical, rigid, unquestioning, unambiguous adherence to the existing "principles" in any circumstances and conditions is a brake on the development of an integral community of people.
Such a law leads to excessive tension in relations between people, lowers the stability of the community (both seven and the state), contributes to the emergence of conflict situations and causes the collapse of any association.
"Politics" is always needed - the art of compromise!
People are not gas molecules in a jar that strictly and inevitably follow the laws of physical chemistry. Their united community is determined only by the presence of walls at the bank - the boundaries of possible movement.
Open the jar and all the molecules will leave the jar (freedom) within a certain time. In their place, other molecules will fly from the environment, the atmosphere ... Which, also, will not linger in it for a long time.
For the sustainable development of the system, a harmonious combination of principles (conservatism) and compromise (freedoms, liberalism) is necessary.
I think this is determined by nature: the Golden Ratio!
There should be 67% of conservatism, principles and 33% of freedoms, compromises!
And you will have a harmoniously organized society!
