Breaking the will of tribes to mold it into the betterment of the collective is generally the right unifying solution given the immediacy of an emergency.
- Say, thinking the "right way" as prescribed by an authority is the one and only right way. Perhaps all religion is wrong, secular society with science is the only way.
- Immediacy could mean a span of now to say, fifty years.
Choice of context (geographical, political, social boundaries) and issue of contention for illustration at your discretion.
(Religion as an example above is not mandatory, perhaps no smoking policy or suing for defamation.)
Kindly phrase theories in the positive, as opposed to what is not correct.

Observation
Spending many years travelling to visit philosophers of old, a man chanced upon a sage who proposed that he should find a place to settle down and teach, which prompted the question "Where is my abiding place ?"
The sage retorted in smugness,"What ? You don't even realise that the True Man is his own abiding place?"
To which the simple dressed man replied,"For thirty years, I have roamed freely on horseback. Today, for the first time, I am kicked by as ***!"
The first person to decipher this, may so call this question as they please.
What is obvious from the series of eight questions, is that free will, impluse, thought and wisdom do not go hand in hand.

The traveller was on horseback. To which *** refers to a Donkey.

Asker xi: (Big Hint)
Please take the caution of visiting with very deep pockets. Invocation of the 5th amendment after brusque verbal infidelity, will only mean fecal matter cleaned with ruthless efficiency.
