The reality is you don’t. Looking back at human history this is the natural order. This is how civilizations begin their descent. They forget what made them great and begin to assume their greatness is innate. Resting on their laurels, so to speak.
It would be remarkable if you could drive them back. But the US and the West has lived with incredibly disproportionate prosperity for a long time now, at the expense of the rest of the world, and it would be incredibly naive to assume it would last forever.
The past 75 years have marked global collaboration and growth in a way humanity has never seen before. But it was only a matter of time for us to reach a point where we could no longer satiate the greed of the wealthiest among us.
They know that this period of mutual prosperity could never be indefinite so they want to ensure we are as divided as possible when the gauntlet drops.
If you want to put the cat back in the bag, so to speak, you would need to convince the average person that social media without guardrails is rotting their brains but they’re too busy doomscrolling and consuming, while being fed a steady diet of hatred, to maintain division.
