Most people just want a good life. If we stopped seeing each other as the enemies the world could be better.

        Yea you mentioned divide and conquer then put images of the parliament with and without FPTP. Its easily misinterpreted to say that proportional representation is somehow “divide and conquer”.

          Huh? I showed how a simple change to US and UK election laws can topple the two party system overnight.

          Literally, if there are only two private parties run by private organizations of rich people, they merely have to divide us and conquer us. We are being puppeteered by a bunch of corporations that use identity politics to keep the poor fighting amongst themselves and people SLURP THAT SHIT UP BECAUSE THE TWO PARTY SYSTEM CODIFIES IT INTO EVERY DECISION.

          Feudalism with a few more steps.

          Interesting point, though and I can see what you mean.

          Truly, if my comment were to make a sense, I’d have to say they have “combined” and conquered.
