I have to be honest, I have given up on pgp. From what I know there is no way to have encrypted communications between more than two people. So why even bother pursuing the dream of everyone using it if there is such a roadblock in the way of common communication habits.

I believe PGP does support multiple recipients. The symmetric key is encrypted and included for every recipient.

PGP absolutely supports multiple recipients. As the other reply says, the (small) symmetric key is encrypted separately with the public key of every recipient.
