Attachment

One of the main features of this game is social interaction. There is not only politics, but comradery, specially for some people with a deep sense of national pride, and not only balcanic people, but social touch, such as chats and forums.
The sense of belonging to a group arises. It's attachment.

In purely politics, this attachment follows the Robert Michel's law of Iron (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_law_of_oligarchy) that creates more and more toxic relationships based on the appraisal and cult of the leader. Needless to say that many leaders here are just young adults or teenagers, so they usually have unrestrained megalomaniac tendencies. Law of iron alone is able to wreak havoc within civilized groups of people, but among teenagers... well, there is a book ' The lord of the flies' that describes it quite well.

There are two opposing forces in relationships: one of attraction and one of running away ( repulsion). Groups, either politics or military, suffer those kind of forces. Sooner or later, egos arise and it is difficult to forget and forgive, so most groups are left with a leader and his court of followers, sometimes, in political there are several leaders with their own courts. Partisan politics is just the natural way of evolution, so take it easy, it won't improve or change , just live it easily .

The aversion to loss or fear are stronger forces than love -- some songwriters would claim otherwise-- and it's natural since you can easily recover from a broken heart but not from an eaten leg from a lion or a spear in the back. So the negative forces are stronger than the positive, attractive one. So over time, it's natural that groups such this game are divided into separated island, actually very distant each other.

TL😉R: Take it easy.
