Unfortunately I can not directly alter the human mind as it’s against the wizard code of ethics :( But I do that on my own and try to do my best to remove ignorance and hate from the minds of people with the power of projecting compassion where possible. If a human is too deep in their own ignorance, then I try to protect others around them to the best of my ability.
Ok, then put a “truthiness” meter on all media, which can’t be removed. It should not beat around the bush: if something is a lie, it should say “lie!” If someone is lying, it should say “liar!” If someone truly believes something, but are simply wrong or misinformed, it should have a truthiness meter.
It should do this for all news, anything masquerading as news, and televangelists. Fiction presented as fiction without pretense of being fact is exempt.
The meter should resist all attempts at hiding, filtering, and removal. It should apply to all media.
I … uh … did I tell you I can conjure a sandwich? Sandwiches are pretty nice. And takes away the helpless feeling we have when we can’t directly affect the world in the way we would like to.
A sandwich will restore your energy, give you a sense of control (since you choose what your sandwich is made out of) and encourages you to make noise, sign petitions and spread the word about the dangers of mis/disinformation and why someone would want to spread such information.
Conjure your sandwich, then plant the seed of that truthmeter into the minds of people.

Could you please remove extremism from the human noosphere?

We’ll I guess I’ll just have to let the SCP Foundation know that I’ve found a dangerous reality bender. Unless you want to rethink that stance.
I mean… I’m just a jobless dude with a long beard… spare some change? No wizardry or magic hoopity poopitys here sir.

A sandwich? That was always an option? Heck, I’ll take the sandwich!
Granted, your next sandwich will be delicious. Knowing this: chew slower, enjoy it!
Thank you, Wizard!
