This is not some rose-colored-glasses philosophy…and even if it were, do you like feeling bad? Do you like feeling disempowered? I think it’s safe to assume the answer here is no. When we recognize this, we can better work collectively to empower each other and spread abundance and positivity into the world. We are stronger together than we are apart. Using the idea of the “other” to create fear and exploit the artifices of lack and scarcity, the power-mongers work to take on more for themselves. Splitting and dividing us is almost entirely built out of negativity. But power is an illusion, and when you become empowered yourself, you gain the ability to see that you can change the world for the better. This gets encouraged because certain people believe it lets them hold onto their power. It’s easy to get caught up in the fervor and take a stand against people. Instead, we can focus on working together, in order to better create more empowerment and to work mutually for our greater good. When we recognize the blatant attempts to divide us, we can work on resisting this. Ergo, those “in power” use divisions to create their bases and hold onto their so-called power. Conflict leads to disempowerment of the many while empowering a few. They tend to resort to name-calling, smear campaigns, and using everything they can to show us the depth of division, and divide us further.Ĭreating divisions leads to conflict. They tend to be really loud, and very opinionated.

When the centrists recognize this, they can find common ground to work together, and we can make things happen. Overall, the VAST majority are somewhere near to the center, some leaning left and some leaning right. I know it’s an unpopular topic, but let’s look at American politics. Dividing is an attempt at disempowering you. Standing together and presenting a united front empowers everyone involved. In any situation, when you stand together you increase your group strength. If, however, they press me and don’t let me split them up, their chances are far greater. If I can divide them up into teams of two and two, I have a better chance. Four on one? Sure, I may take one or two of them with me, but odds are not in my favor to win. Three on one? Not impossible, but super-difficult.

When facing two on one, even if they are not as skilled as I am, it’s going to be harder for me to beat them both. When I am fencing one-on-one against someone my equal, it could go either way.

If we are divided, we are a lot easier to overcome. That’s the reason why so many of those “ in power” choose to emphasize and create division.
