Make people realize what types of thinking leads to these types of actions, in addition to under which conditions, how and why.
I think it's very strange that what we know of common errors of thinking (e.g. logical fallacies, cognitive biases, etc.) have no real place in our pop-, political or common intellectual culture. The fact that we don't use these "checklists" when evaluating ideas directly leads to the spread and rise of intellectually bankrupt ideas, or ways of thinking that make no sense (at best), all over the political spectrum.
Also: Education, equality, social mobility and inclusivity (all known to play their parts in this complex equation).
Sorry; not to comment upon that which must not be commented upon, but I'd love to hear what people disagree with my post about, as opposed to not getting to know anything other than its popularity.
