Given that you have cited Zizek's argument, give some consideration to interviewing Dr Tali Sharot (Neuroscientist). Following outlines her work:

Its the hierarchal structure that's the problem not the resulting political struggles in how to operate it. Any particular political organization in control would not steer the thing in a sustainable direction as hierarchies must overuse resources to exist. The solution is always worse than the natural cure sort of thing. I think I made a mistake following a political journalist.
