Divide and rule
The divide and conquer strategy is used by those in power to keep others under control. It means that by creating division or conflict among people, one can maintain their dominance over them.
Here are some Divide And Conquer Quotes:
*Divide and rule, the politician cries; unite and lead, is watchword of the wise.
-------------Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
*If you make people uniform, you can control them. If you teach people to read, and think, and question things, you lose control. So, the best idea is to separate people if you wish to maintain a monetary system. It's called divide and conquer. By dividing people, they're not a threat, you can control them.
---------------Jacque Fresco
-------------------Eleanor Roosevelt
