That remains to be seen. I'd say rejection of the ideology put forth to adopt a common enemy would be one step. It's in our DNA to do something to improve the odds of our own genes passing on, so racism protectionism and so on are very easy ways to manipulate the masses. The common enemies being put forth are many -- Muslims, immigrants of all kinds, Mexicans, the Clintons, mostly Hillary (not enough of her to go around so already dropped), and the one they really want, journalists. Get those pesky people out of the way, and they can pretty much continue the Hitler-like rallies of influencing the growing mobs directly with no reality check or pause for reflection or an honest exposé. Another thing you can do -- subscribe to a good newspaper. If we don't support real journalism, we're screwed.
