#DivideandRule
It was fun having you on my boat. And as always hugely inspiring. Love your new book - a clear eyed analysis of our strangely distorted images of royal women and ‚patrimonarchy‘. #divideandrule
A delightful afternoon on her houseboat with a queen of journalism, @annettedittert.bsky.social, discussing the state of the world (not so delightful) and figuring out potential joint projects. Watch this space.

Divide and Rule is a tactic where leaders or regimes sow division between groups to weaken unity.

A divided population is easier to control, distract, and exploit.

It's as old as empire and still thriving today. 🧵

constant anger as
media engineering
tiring as this heat
a distraction engine
wearing down all resistance

Nice to see my own book, Divide and Rule, keeping such good company. Oh and it is possible that Annette’s feed may feature a snippet of our conversation auf Deutsch later this week, for those of you so inclined. #dearbritain #divideandrule

“… listening to Vance's praise of Brexit in Munich, we see that the interest is to atomise, to play 1 to 1 with each European country.”

It’s time we understood that our division allows those with disproportionate power to rule.
