I don't think that it takes a messiah to make a difference. I support candidates/policies I believe will make a difference and make my positions known to anyone who will listen. But I personally can't change the hearts/minds of people who won't listen and are closed off due to hatred.
My personal theory is that the best way to get people to see the light only will happen when people see their world materially change in their lives for the better. And then realize that the hatred doesn't matter, and we're all the same and deserve a dignified human existence with basic needs met.
But for as long as we live in a deeply flawed dog eat dog society, it will be easier to taint people and use their hatred to blind them and turn them against each other.
