Ordinary education starting at a young age about fundamental prosocial values, dignity, and shared (and local) interests. Critical thinking skills and practice asking questions like “how will this actually help? Where is it coming from? Cui bono?”
And just being open-minded and not overly emotional (and thus easily manipulated).
And point out that unfortunately many entities out there are more than happy to use them as pawns and care not a wit about the wellbeing of them or their friends, neighbours, or loved ones.
But, putting that into schools would be decried as the boogeyman of “socialism” or even xenophobia or something. Irony

totally agree overall, except we have so many millions of people who did not receive any of this education early, if at all.
I worry for the next 20 years.
