🧩 Phase 4: Division

After conflict comes separation. The world fragments into isolated zones — ideologically, emotionally, and socially. Each piece believes it is the whole.

• 🧱 Echo chambers: People retreat into belief silos, reinforcing identity through division.
• 🌐 Network tribalism: Social networks become territories, each ruled by its own language and myth.
• 🥶 Emotional detachment: Empathy declines, replaced by suspicion and distancing.
• 🧘 Clarity praxis: The practice of seeing through division begins by recognizing one's own biases.

Division creates clarity by contrast — but only if you know how to zoom out.
