Acknowledging and operating with the group dynamics. Expecting consensus among billions is just as futile as waiting the entropy of a gas to spontaneously decrease.
we only need consensus on the big issues, like pollution and things like human rights. and we should agree to solve conflicts peacefully. trying to achieve consensus on everything would not just be futile but counterproductive. consensus is only needed by those that are affected by a decision. anyone not affected should not even get a say.
