Once we get invaded by aliens and we have another species to be racist against.
I used to think The Watchmen approach would be an effective one as well, however these days I'm really wondering just how many politicians and corpos would sell out to warlord aliens if they could.
XCOM did it!
What's the watchmen approach?
In order to prevent the nearing WWIII, the greatest mind alive, Ozymandias, puts together a plan for world peace in which he fakes an alien invasion. His idea being that with the threat of an extra-terrestrial invasion at hand humanity must unite as one to defeat a common enemy.
Also he kills three million people...
Details, details... WWIII probably would have to! (/S lol)
Half of the population wouldn't believe in an alien invasion and they'd blame it on wOkE pEoPlE
