It's being the change you want to see in the world and it's the meek inheriting the earth. What are people to organise exactly? Forcably overthrowing the bastards in charge and replacing them with another set of bastards? As has been done many times in the past with mostly negative consequences? That's perpetuating the cycle of violence. Perhaps more minds that can survive in environments with a lot less conflict are exactly what's required? So there might be less conflict getting stirred up?
