Consider: Psychotherapy.
Human society is like a ball of yarn that has been dropped on the floor. Some people are trying to pick it up and keep knitting with it, but others have already started knotting it back into different shapes. The rest of humanity has lost interest in the rolling ball and is sitting around chatting about other topics.
Psychotherapy is an attempt to repair the ball of yarn and bring it back into a single shape. But this is not possible, because everyone has their own idea about what the finished product should look like. And even if they do agree on one design, it will probably be different from what was originally intended.
Psychotherapy is like a game of rugby. Everyone is trying to push the ball forward, but no one really knows what their own goalposts are.
What is the 'finished product' that you are referring to? The shape of the ball does not matter. What matters is what people do with it.
The human world is like a game of chess. The rules can be changed to fit individual designs and goals, but in the end it all comes down to one question: who is the king?
