As individuals, I don’t think it’s likely anything will change, whatever we do.
As a society, if we demand change–through respect of others’ opinions, through some acceptance of the difference between fact and opinion, through refusing to support bigotry and one-sided spins, and so on–we might see some change.
But bmonk, your position contradicts itself. Society is nothing more than a collection of interacting individuals. If we can’t impose on ourselves as individuals what we demand from others as a society, then social change is impossible.
A source I doubt you give any credit to points out that as individuals and as a society, human beings simply cannot rule themselves when left to themselves. What I find amazing is that totally secular models such as Jungian psychology indicate the very same thing, yet their practioners insist nevertheless that man has everything he needs within himself. It’s as if they don’t dare to believe their own data.

“I’m sure she knows how to set them correctly. She is so mad that she intentionally separated them.”
And yet, each of the two has that dot of the other in its heart–so that they can never really be separated entirely.

bmonk, more likely so that people will know they are cut from the same cloth, no matter the rhetoric.
