divisionist
One promoting schisms
A divisionist advocates for or promotes division, typically the separation of a group, territory, or institution into distinct parts.
The term appears in political contexts where factions seek to split from larger entities: Divisionist rhetoric threatened to fracture the coalition.
In art history, Divisionism refers to a late 19th-century painting technique using separate dots of color, and a divisionist is a practitioner of that style.
