To mitigate this, the authorities need core groups of people they protect
They need military people to always have a tribalist meatbag network, even if other people are interacting through screens
The people-isolating strategy obviously kills itself if they use it on everyone, so they obviously must be applying it selectivey
Keep feeding people dopamine so they stay tribalist, and you get social groups and friendships and people that are willing to die to protect each other and stuff.
Make friendships happen on the internet so people don't want to die to protect each other, and what you're doing is making them less tribalist, so they won't want to die to attack the middle east either.
Lose lose for the authorities
