They have to keep them from forming any kind of organization...
'Not convinced with that line of enquiry. People always organise.......family, government, work, religion: the great organising features of human endeavour and they're with people every day. No one minds providing the plebs don't get too uppity, and if they do, well, there's beer or god or team sports or consumerism etc to ensure people are focused elsewhere.

ORIGINAL: Termyn8or
The only thing I can think of is if we give up our indulgences and concentrate on the future.
Are people (enough people to make a difference) actually capable of giving up their indulgences? People need a release; to date, it's proved beyond man to create the 'overman' without flaws and failures of one kind or another. Maybe we're inherently flawed, or maybe we're in the early stages of human evolution. Either way, we'll all die without knowing, thus rendering all present-day political endeavour ultimately pointless.
