Divide and conquer


It is clear there are very different opinions on how to scale Bitcoin. Different opinions are fine but there should be discussion, not fighting. We are still ONE Bitcoin.I want to create awareness about strategies that might be in action right now by people who oppose Bitcoin in general. Why? I hope people will count to ten first before jumping to conclusions and react on possible clowns who just want to screw up this fantastic experiment called Bitcoin!http://bit.ly/2eXoKKf and conquer. Divide and rule (or divide and conquer, from Latin dīvide et īmpera) in politics and sociology is gaining and maintaining power by breaking up larger concentrations of power into pieces that individually have less power than the one implementing the strategy. The concept refers to a strategy that breaks up existing power structures, and especially prevents smaller power groups from linking up, causing rivalries and fomenting discord among the people.[1]Traiano Boccalini cites "divide et impera" in La bilancia politica[2] as a common principle in politics. The use of this technique is meant to empower the sovereign to control subjects, populations, or factions of different interests, who collectively might be able to oppose his rule. Machiavelli identifies a similar application to military strategy, advising in Book VI of The Art of War[3](Dell'arte della guerra),[4] that a Captain should endeavor with every art to divide the forces of the enemy, either by making him suspicious of his men in whom he trusted, or by giving him cause that he has to separate his forces, and, because of this, become weaker. via /r/Bitcoin http://bit.ly/2eyHBIS
