Don't know if I'm going to be able to explain myself succinctly but I'll try.
There are 2 things here I think we "need".
First - Anarchism relating to man-made law. As long as we live in a system of rule that is based upon hierarchy to man (meaning, that there is some man/woman who rules over me, or I rule over them) then we have no chance for freedom and peace. Anarchy between mankind is an absolute must.
Second - After anarchy towards man has been estabilished, mankind can unite in the same desire which is to bring contentment to our Maker (call it Creator, God, Nature, Consciousness, it's all the same).
This is my path. Now, to be clear, Anarchy towards man-made law is inevitable. However, there's a 99,9% chance that Anarchy will come alongside destruction because mankind is not going to accept Anarchy in any way, shape or form. What I see as being most likely to happen is a "final revolution" where the Establishment/Government/System of Rule can no longer be sustained (because of the inherent corruption) and mankind will "lose their minds" and it will be a "free-for-all". In this "free-for-all" there will be a moment of pure and complete Anarchy, and this is where mankind will make it's choice of repeating the cycle (another 13000 years or whatever of more Government) or to break the cycle and "evolve"/"develop".
But, this is my opinion, which is born out of my mind and reason, which is nothing more than Materialistic/Corporeal/Psychological conclusions.
I can't live my life this way. So I live my life on the path of Faith above Reason. And on this path, I live my life with the idea/hope/goal/purpose that it doesn't have to be this way (you can call me naive for this). I live my life knowing that there's a 99,9% chance that things are going to get "fucked up", but my actions and intentions are only towards the 0,1% chance that it will not get "fucked up".
When I speak of Unity of Souls, I speak of an idea where there is the possibility of uniting mankind not because we all agree that this is the best mode of government, or because we all agree we are polluting the planet or whatever but because we are in fact all the same, we are in fact all at the same stage of development, and that we are in fact all the same Soul and there is no "Other", there is only an illusion created by our minds and senses that tells us "look, there's another person" instead of the Truth which is "look, there's another myself".
I know that on this planet we must be "rational" and look at our problems in a "rational" way. But the Truth is that this is what we have been doing all along and it has brought us nothing but pain/misery/suffering/etc
What I do see is that there have been (and still are) some people which have followed the path of Faith above Reason and those people are responsible for every drop of Good that mankind has enjoyed.
To conclude, you asked me what sort of catalyst I think would be necessary for "change". My response is there is no such catalyst. This is an ongoing process and the time for "abrupt" social changes has come to an end. We will be slowly swallowed up by the new system of rule based on technology (with the consent of the overwhelming majority of the population) and only the inevitable "saturation" and "breakdown" of the system itself will cause the so called "change". But even then, it's very likely the cycle will just repeat itself and we will go back to the "stone age" to try and get it right this time around.
I just try to get people to look behond Corporeality into Spirituality where you are indeed Imortal and Eternal so that at least some people may get some peace of mind (which leads to them living more "conscious" lives overall I think).
Sorry for the wall of text btw =) and I know this is kind of a "silly" talk and I went off-track a bit. But these things can't be separated and I can no longer live in a world that only exists in the interpretations that my brain makes of my five senses.
