It has to be done in secret, by purely good intentioned third party that has some sort of leverage over the people in power.
This group should have one sole purpose of dosing the people in power and otherwise not be allowed to have any further influence.
Until our selection mechanisms choose the purest intentioned people rather than expedient and selfish profiteers, the people in power will be driven to optimize objective functions that aren’t conducive for humanity. In the short term, the best way to fix this would be to reveal what is truly happening around them and force them to confront the consequences of their actions and lack thereof.
This is very different from the game they have become so familiar with and content with playing.

If some people could start to wake up and realize how absurd, how fake our so called democracy is, and start to outright mock it and the normies who continue to blindly worship it as our most sacred institution, perhaps we could squeeze a 5% or so improvement in behavior out of them, for a few years anyways until another patch is realized to wipe that belief from people's minds.
