discovered how to use this power for evil

One proposed solution is to put control of consensus reality in people we trust, like scientists. However, I think it's pointless to leave such a dangerous force lying around where anyone could theoretically get ahold of it.

Instead, we should dismantle the very idea of objective reality, and teach everyone the skills to control their subjective world, so that we can democratise perception and create a subjective multiverse with room for everyone.
