Divisiveness is a sword wielded by a leader fool. The people suffer while the leaders rule and huge profits for them ensue. A game as old as when human man did first rise up to stand, within his own small clan, picking up a club to strike down his fellow man.
Thousands of years gone by and we have learned nothing new, still the leaders rant and we implode and like addled sheep too easily led we march out to our own inevitable slaughtered end.
Kings and Despots rule for their benefit not ours. Divisiveness is but one of their deceitful tools. Divide and concur is the rule.
